Mechanical APDL Basic Analysis Guide

(Axel Boer) #1

The program unaverages nodal results and sorts them by element number. Averaging results does not
affect element results plots. Results are for all nodal locations on the model surface. If you issued the
/EFACET,1 command, the results for the midside nodes are not listed.


PowerGraphics does not support safety factor calculations.


Caution

In unusual cases, your model may contain element types having different results data sets.
If so, be sure to unselect those element types which do not have the data set you are review-
ing. This prevents zero values from being averaged with valid results. For example, if your
model contains FLUID30 (Acoustic Fluid) and SOLID185 (Structural Solid) elements, unselect
all SOLID185 elements before viewing a pressure gradient.
