Selecting a solver for transient cool analyses

In order to select a solver for transient cool analyses, you must first select an analysis sequence that contains a Cool (FEM) analysis.

1. Click (Home tab > Molding Process Setup panel > Analysis Sequence), and select the Cool (FEM) analysis of interest.
   Note: Transient cool analyses are only available for a Thermoplastic Injection molding process, using the finite element method (FEM) solver.
2. Click (Home tab > Molding Process Setup panel > Process Settings) to open the Process Setting Wizard - Cool (FEM) Settings dialog.
3. Click on the Cool (FEM) Solver Parameters button and select whether to use the Conduction solver or the Flow solver (Flow analysis on every iteration) from the Transient, part heat flux calculation drop-down menu. The Conduction solver returns a faster result but the Flow solver may return a more accurate one.
4. Check the default values and edit them if necessary, then click OK.
   Note: Generally, the default settings should suffice.
5. Click Next, if necessary, to proceed through the Process Settings Wizard dialogs, then click OK to exit.
