Hi,
I've a problem storing transient data. I run the transient simulation from 0 to 10 second with time step of 0.00001 second but I only want to save data as follows: 1) from 0 to 1 second with 0.0001second time intervals 2) from 1 to 2 second with 0.001second time intervals 3) from 2 to 3 second with 0.1 second time intervals 4) from 3 to 10 second with 1 second time intervals How can I specify time intervals in Pre (under Output Control menu)? I've both 5.7.1 and 10 at different machines. In 5.7.1, I can either select a fixed time intervals or put a time list....However, I have different time intervals here. Inserting 1000+++ time value in the time list is exhuasting....Any better way of doing this? If it's not possible, please also let me know.... Thanks for your help. Oliver. |

Hi,
As far as I know it isn't possible. The only way I see to do that is by creating 4 different simulations, and starting simulation 2 with the .res file from simulation 1, and so on. Regards, Rui |

Hi, Oliver
If you input 10000*0.0001, 1000*0.001, 10*0.1, 7*1 as your time step, you should be able to get what you want. Regards! Jianping |

Thanks for your help but how could the solver know the time when the time step start to change if you specify this way? e.g. 1000*0.001 time interval is supposed to start at t=1 second while 7*1 time interval will start at t=3second.... |

Hi,
If you feel confused about this, you can simply test it by run a case with time step as '2*0.1, 2*1'. Regards! Jianping |
