Hello Everyone,

 

I am working on my element file Imported on Permas solver, and in this Actually I have tria 6 element but in Hyperwork permas solver it shows tria10. I don't know why? 

You can see from the image. 

 

Moreover, I have defined in this my element Indirect property as my alpha value in which I have define my film coefficient which is nothing but my Convection heat transfer coefficient 'H'. but when I want to show on the particular node ID, it shows me some another element ID. so, when I imported my .res file and want to see result of Contour elements, those element which I want to see are missing. 

I don't know why? 

Steps:  

*createmarkpanel elems 1 'shell element' GO TO DISPLAYED 

set elementlist [hm_getmark elems 1] 

 

 

after those steps I got some another element ID: which are other displayed. 

Please help me. what should be the problem? 

Thank you, 

 

Best Regards,

    Hi Nayak,

    Using hm_getmark you are getting the HyperMesh internal IDs. Where as the solver ids will be different. You can search for hm_getsolverids in Help Menu which will provide the details about the solver id. Please find the image attached.
