Is there a Hyperview results reader available that will read .pch results files, or a translator that will convert a .pch results file into .h3d or another acceptable file format?

    Hi baker1213

     

    You can make use of ''hmnast Utility'' to translate .pch file into HyperMesh binary results files (.res)

     

     Once you have HyperMesh binary result file (res) , you can use the Hvtran Utility to translate .res file to .h3d file.

     

    I have attached the documents which explains the steps to be followed to translate the pch files to HyperMesh binary result file (.res) and then to .h3d file

     

     Please note if the .pch file size is huge, then you may have to split the .pch files before translating into .h3d file. Please refer to the punch_split.pdf which explains in detail the steps to split the punch file.

     

    Thanks
