3.2.1. Using the GetSolution Utility with Command Line Arguments Only

Please follow these instructions to run the GetSolution utility only:

  1. Open a Command prompt or UNIX shell.

  2. Make sure the full path to your Ansys Chemkin bin directory is included in your PATH environment variable (see Ansys Chemkin Windows Environment or Chemkin Linux Environment in the Chemkin Getting Started Guide).

  3. Navigate to your working directory.

  4. At the command line, type (one continuous line):

    GetSolution [-help] [-listonly] [-nosen] [-norop] [-mass] [-all] [-p] [preference_file] [XML_zipfile] [abbreviation_file]

    The bracketed words represent optional commands. See Table 3.1: GetSolution Arguments for further details.

  5. GetSolution generates a comma-delimited text file named CKSoln.ckcsv and places it in your working directory. CKSoln.ckcsv can be imported into third party software such as Microsoft® Excel®.
