Monitor every iteration in transient simulation

bongbang · June 8, 2015, 22:28

Normally the monitor for a transient run shows the values for every iteration in a time step. (The plots are jagged as the variables jump upon entering a time step and then approach convergence.) In the latest run, however, the monitor appears to show only the result of the last iteration of each time step. How can I switch between the two modes? Thanks.

In the monitor tab you have the option to 'monitor coefficient loop convergence'. If it is checked you will see the monitor values for all coefficient loops.

Thanks. Curious how that option is in the solver setup rather than the monitor, isn't it?

If it is not set, it is not written for monitoring.

The setting must be upstream of the data being available, I guess
