Initializing the Solution and Running the Simulation
Preparation of the simulation is now complete, and the simulation can be run.
To initialize the solution and run the simulation:
-
Click
(Initialize Solution) in the Solution toolbar or select from the menu.
The initial Lithium/Salt Concentration looks as follows:
-
Click
(Run) in the Solution toolbar.
The solution progress is displayed in the Output window. The Residuals display is created automatically in the Graphics window and shows the progress of the solvers.
While the simulation is running, you can click the tabs at the top of the Graphics window to view scenes and plots.
During the run, you can stop the process by clicking
(Stop) on the toolbar. If you do stop the simulation, you can click
(Run) to resume it.
If left alone, the simulation continues until 100 seconds of physical time are complete. When the last iteration is complete, the following message is displayed in the Output window:
Stopping criterion Maximum Physical Time satisfied.
- When the simulation has finished running, save it.
