Solve Quick Edit dialog: Control

Define how the analysis runs with the Control tab of the Solve dialog.

  • Set the Solution Mode to Steady State or Transient.

  • If Transient, set the Transient Parameters (time step size, etc.)

  • Set the Save Intervals for Results and/or Summary

  • Select the Solver Computer (the local computer is the default).

  • If continuing an analysis, select the Iteration or Time Step to Continue From.

  • Enter the number of Iterations to Run (or Time Steps to Run)

  • The Solution control tools provide control over how quickly the calculation progresses to ensure a robust, converged solution. In addition to the manual controls, Autodesk® CFD contains a great deal of Analysis Intelligence which automatically controls the rate of convergence as well as determines when the analysis is converged (no longer changing).

  • Optional: select additional Result Quantities.
