Hi all

I am trying to start my simulation from the console with the commands 'iterate' and 'dual time iterate' after typing 'solve' but a message of 'invalid command' appears for both. When I type 'solve/help' this is is the message that appears

"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" """"""""""""""""

/solve> help



Type "?<command>" for help on a specific command.

Type "?" to enter help mode, and "q" to exit help mode.



The commands below are available in this menu.

Those followed by "*" are currently disabled.



animate/ monitors/

cell-register-operations/* multistage-time-iterate*

cell-registers/ patch

convergence-conditions/ report-definitions/

dpm-update* report-files/

dual-time-iterate* report-plots/

execute-commands/ set/

initialize/ update-physical-time*

iterate*



mesh-motion



"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" """""

How do I enable those two options? All upstream setup should be ok since when I click on 'calculation' from the GUI it starts normally. The case aims to study the behavior of a planing speed boat in 3D transient mode. It has a vof and a 6dof double precision solvers and a dynamic mesh. The UDF works well for the rigid body and all the setup as I said before, should be ok.

I need to find out how to enable these options for a my journal file in order to run the simulation in batch mode. Please help!

Thanks beforehand.

solve initialize initialize-flow OK
solve set t-s 10
solve d-t-i 11 12

10 - Time step size (sec)
11 - Number of physical time steps
12 - Number of iterations per time step

best regards
