A CFX-Solver run that has stopped may be restarted for the following reasons:
The CFX-Solver stopped prematurely, at your request, and now needs to continue running.
More timesteps are needed to extend the duration of a transient analysis, or more iterations are needed to reach a required level of convergence for a steady-state analysis.
You have added operating points to an operating point run.
Such restarts are particularly useful because they continue the analysis from where it left off, which is often much more efficient than rerunning the analysis from the original CFX-Solver Input file. For each restart, a new workspace is created and the previously saved solver manager state is loaded.
The following discussions describe restarting simulations from CFX-Solver Results files using the same or modified settings:
