Hello,<\/p>\n
I am trying to automate a workflow in Workbench and would be grateful for some ideas.<\/p>\n
At the moment my simulation solves several transient thermal analyses, in which the solution temperature distrubution of an analysis A is imported an initial condition for the next B analysis. The geometry is not the same and therefore I am importing the initial temperature condition via an external data block in WB.<\/p>\n
This process is very tedious to do manually and I have managed to create a button using ACT Scriptting in Mechanical to export my temeprature profiles to txt files. But now I have to press the button manually everytime the solution is obtained. Is there a way to make Mechanical export the data directly without me pressing a button?<\/p>\n
Then for the other task, which is creating and setting up the external data files I have also created a scrip using ACT. I wrote my python script and then make WB read it. This means that I have to read my scrip everytime an analysis is finishes and I want this operation to be performed.<\/p>\n
Is there a way of making workbench solve my mechanical system A, save the results to txt (without me pressing a button) and directly creating the external data for mechanical system B?<\/p>\n
To this, is there a way to “enter” mechanical via the python scripting of WB? So I could develop a code that first saves the txt files in system A and directly generates the external data block and imports loads into system B.<\/p>\n
Thanks in advance!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-251421","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
