ansys.mapdl.core.Mapdl.nsol#

Mapdl.nsol(nvar='', node='', item='', comp='', name='', sector='', **kwargs)#

Specifies nodal data to be stored from the results file.

Mechanical APDL Command: NSOL

Parameters:
nvarstr

Arbitrary reference number assigned to this variable. Variable numbers can be 2 to NV ( numvar ). Overwrites any existing results for this variable.

nodestr

Node for which data are to be stored.

itemstr

Label identifying the item. Valid item labels are shown in the table below. Some items also require a component label.

compstr

Component of the item (if required). Valid component labels are shown in the table below.

namestr

Thirty-two character name identifying the item on printouts and displays. Defaults to a label formed by concatenating the first four characters of the Item and Comp labels.

sectorstr

For a full harmonic cyclic symmetry solution, the sector number for which the results from NODE are to be stored.

Notes

Stores nodal degree of freedom and solution results in a variable. For more information, see Data Interpreted in the Nodal Coordinate System in the Modeling and Meshing Guide.

For SECTOR >1, the result is in the nodal coordinate system of the base sector, and it is rotated to the expanded sector``s location. Refer to Using the /CYCEXPAND Command
