28.5.9. Output for Interruption Criteria

The list of criteria will be printed at the beginning of the Ansys Polyflow simulation, and hence, at the beginning of the listing file. The list will appear before the beginning of evolution, as shown in the following example:

 ***************************************
 *                                     *
 *  CRITERIA TO INTERRUPT EVOLUTION    *
 *                                     *
 ***************************************
 
 The evolution will be interrupted if :
 
           min(TEMPERATURE) on (S1*B1).
                   <= 70.000E+00
   
 
  ===> Starting Time marching
          at t-ini = 0.0000000E+00
  =================================
 *************************************
 *** Starting Step  1              ***
 *************************************
 ...
 

At the end of the step, you can find the information about the current status of the criteria. If none of the groups of criteria are satisfied, the following will be displayed:

 *** time step information : ***
 ===============================
 t      = 0.1000000E-01, step # 1
 dtnew  = 0.1000000E-01, okincr : T
 tests  = 0.2640593E-01
 
 *********************************
 *                               *
 *  INTERRUPTION OF EVOLUTION    *
 *                               *
 *********************************
 
 The evolution continues :
 
 All criteria are not satisfied: 
        min(TEMPERATURE) on (S1*B1).
        116.832E+00 < 70.000E+00 , criterion is : F
       
 *************************************
 *** Starting Step  2              ***
 ************************************* 

Otherwise, if a group of criteria is satisfied, the following is displayed:

 *** time step information : ***
 ===============================
 t      = 0.6960801E+00, step #  13
 dtnew  = 0.1536490E+00, okincr : T
 tests  = 0.1534719E-01
 
 ********************************
 *                               *
 *  INTERRUPTION OF EVOLUTION    *
 *                               *
 *********************************
 
 The evolution is interrupted :
 
 All criteria are satisfied:
 
     min(TEMPERATURE) on (S1*B1).
     69.978E+00 < 70.000E+00 , criterion is : T
     
 Sfin has not been reach.  S = 0.6960801E+00
                        Sfin = 0.2000000E+02
 =========================================== 

Finally, at the end of the listing, you will find the following message if the evolution or the transient scheme has been interrupted by criteria:

 ********************************
 *  Summary of the simulation   *
 ********************************
 
  The computation succeeded.
  The evolution scheme has been interrupted because the criteria are
   satisfied.
