Hi,
I have imported model from solidworks and glued all the volumes.
while meshing i got warning that i have attached.
I am trying to move the circular heat source along z-axis from one end
to other, for that i have changed the coordinate system from cartesian
to cylindrical, so that i can select all the nodes in a circle.
Problem :
Instead it is selecting nodes lying inside the cirle, it is selecting
along the entire axis
Hello! You need to rotate the local coordinate system about the X axis by 90 degrees
Hello Kumar,
After creating the local coordinate system, you have to activate it using the following command:
CSYS, KCN
where KCN corresponds to the ID of the local coordinate system.
Also, make sure you write "nsel,s" instead of "nsel,r" so that you can select the corresponding nodes all over again from the whole model, whereas when you use r, it reselects the nodes from the current set. I see that you are using do loop, which might mean that you move the location of the welding tool. Therefore, you have to select the nodes at each do loop from the whole model, not from your current selection.
Hello Sezer Deger ,
Thanks for your suggestions. After rotating x- axis by 90 degree its working, as suggested by you and Alexey Glebov
Also, thanks for pointing out mistakes in the code.
Regards
Kumar Ujjwal
