Hello All,

I am using Ansys 2021R2 and I need to export certain component stress results (not all of them) to a text or excel file for further post processing. Currently I can do the manually by selecting the particular component stress results in the solution, then right-click, export, export text file to save the file. This becomes very tedious for each of the components and each of my analyses so I am looking for a way to automate this. I don't know much APDL (commands) or python, but I am a quick study on coding in general if someone has a close example. Does anyone have any thoughts on how to do this?

Thanks

Joshua

Hi Joshua Please check:
https://ansyshelp.ansys.com/account/Secured?returnurl=/Views/Secured/corp/v212/en/act_script/act_script.html

you can easily loop through all the required results using
result = Model.Analyses[0].Solution.Children[i] #where i ranges from 1 to n
result.ExportToTextFile(r"C:\\testdata2.txt")

Hi Aniket, I can't access your link. Still works?

I am using Explicit Dynamics analysis, and your method does not seem to work on result probes such as the velocity probe, any clues on how to deal with this situation?

 

Thanks in advance
