Dear all,
I am running a transient simulation and I was wondering if it is possible to plot the history of residuals with respect to flow time rather than number of iterations. I have searched the internet but I was not really successful. Thank you in advance, G. |

Is it really something not doable in the graphical interface?

It is doable. It will plot the final residual values at the end of the time-step if you click the right buttons to setup the residuals monitors.

thank you very much for your reply. May I ask which right buttons you are referring to? Because I have also read the Ansys documentation and I did not find anything related to change the x-axis for the residuals according to flow-time (which on the contrary, it is possible for surface monitors). I would appreciate a lot again your help. |

Ugh! No you are right. I used to create monitors and plot them at end of time-steps. You can actually create monitors of unscaled residuals.

What do you mean with unscaled residuals?
