Query automation of Reults of Simulations

Junhyeong Kang

hi, I m simulating a model of a rotating e-motor and solved the model with different speeds with OptiStruct (as different loadsteps / loadcols). im already done to do automation of Query Stress Data in every nodes. But i want to query more than just one Simulations result. for example i need Stress Data of from 1RPM to 20000RPM, which means 20000 Simulations Results should be reported. i did automation with tcl Commends

 

hwi GetSessionHandle session

session GetProjectHandle project

project GetPageHandle page [project GetActivePage]

page GetWindowHandle window [page GetActiveWindow]

window GetClientHandle client

client GetModelHandle model [client GetActiveModel]

model GetResultCtrlHandle result

 

result GetContourCtrlHandle contour

 

contour SetDataType "Element Stresses (2D & 3D)"

contour SetDataComponent component vonMises

contour SetAverageMode advanced

contour SetLayer Max

contour SetEnableState True

contour SetResultSystem 0

contour SetDimensionEnabled solid True

contour SetDimensionEnabled shell True

contour SetEnableState True

 

client GetMeasureHandle measure 1

 

lappend max_stress

set subcases [result GetSubcaseList "Base"]

foreach subcase $subcases {

result SetCurrentSubcase $subcase                  ;# nächsten Subcase auswählen

client Draw                                        ;# refresh View

lappend max_stress [measure GetMaximum scalar]     ;# Maximum an Liste anhängen

}

 

# Export der maximalen Spannungen

set responses_file [open "struct_responses.json" "w"]

set line "\["

append line [join $max_stress ", "]

append line "\]"

puts -nonewline $responses_file $line

close $responses_file

 

 

# Export der Spannungen

model GetQueryCtrlHandle myQueryName

model GetSelectionSetHandle mySetName [model AddSelectionSet  node]

mySetName Add all

result SetCurrentSimulation 1

 

 

 

myQueryName SetDataSourceProperty result datatype Stress

myQueryName SetDataSourceProperty result shelllayer Upper

myQueryName SetQuery "node.id, node.coords, contour.value"

myQueryName SetSelectionSet [mySetName GetID];

myQueryName WriteData {D:/junhyeong/Spannungsdaten/Daten.csv};

 

when i do simulation of different RPMs like 10000 15000 17000 and 20000, only Stress Data of 20000(biggest RPM Stressdata i guess) ist reported. but i need all Stress Data. what i miss it from TCL Commends or do you guys have ideas?

thanks

you would need to perform a loop (for) looping over all your rotations (probably readed as simulations)

So, here, instead of performing only for the current simulation (1), you would need a loop for all of them

for 1...number_of_sim   {

...

mySetName Add all

result SetCurrentSimulation $i

 

#query commands, and set to different name, according to the RPM

 

}

 

To help reduce the effort here, you could maybe use a mixed combination of TCL and HWC commands. Except for query, they work like a charm.

hey Adriano thanks for the Reply. now i try to make a Loop. i understood that i have to change on the line 'result SetCurrentSimulation 1' to 'result SetCurrentSimulation $i' but i dont get it what i have to also change on the Query lines. how can i make query to depend on the RPM? or what do you mean by 'set to different name'? And try to make 'for' loop like for {set i 0} {$i <5} {incr i}. and i ran the simulations for 10000 15000 20000 22000 RPMs but it is not exported..

 

# Export der Spannungen
model GetQueryCtrlHandle myQueryName
model GetSelectionSetHandle mySetName [model AddSelectionSet  node]
mySetName Add all
result SetCurrentSimulation $i

 

myQueryName SetDataSourceProperty result datatype Stress
myQueryName SetDataSourceProperty result shelllayer Upper
myQueryName SetQuery "node.id, node.coords, contour.value"
myQueryName SetSelectionSet [mySetName GetID];
myQueryName WriteData {D:/junhyeong/Spannungsdaten/Daten.csv};

 

for {set i 0} {$i < 4} {incr i}
