Restarting the simulation

KTJ · April 29, 2014, 14:46

Hello,
I ran a simulation for a case of an aerofoil with 2000 steps as stopping criteria. Now, I have done some mesh refinement around the aerofoil and want to re-run the simulation with same stopping criteria [2000 steps]. But STAR CCM+ won't let me do it. It runs 1 iteration and says 'Stopping criterion maximum steps satisfied'. How do I re-run the simulation again from step 1 as it it were fresh??

At the top, click solution and then clear solution. The re-run

Thanks Plucas! I was stuck at this for a long time. I tried searching it in the object tree, but couldn't. Thanks again!

No problem! I had the same problem a few years back
