I ran a simulation and solver crashed with following error message. What does it mean?

 Simulating extrusion of a single hollow profile   *** INTERNAL ERROR PH155MEMPAK Maximum memory used: 2157101 KB

 

This error can come due to following reason,

  • 1) If mesh in bearing and profile component is bad. Check if mesh in bearing and profile component is properly dragged in the extrusion direction. 
  • 2) if Freesurface start location in .hx  is not defined correctly. 

 

How to overcome?

  • Option #1: 
    • Check mesh in Bearing and Profile component. if you are running polymer extrusion then check mesh in Land and Profile component. 
    • Check if mesh in bearing and profile component is properly dragged in the extrusion direction. 
  • Option #2:
    • check what is start Z location of Bearing solid
    • open .hx file and review value for Freesurface pset variable. it should match bearing start Z location.
