Hi !

Someone know a way to estimate the time to finish simulation at the begining or the time left before the end of simulation ?

Because I try to simulate my model , a simple model, but after 3hours the simulation is not yet finish...

May be exist ways to estimate if this or this parameter increase my simualtion time

 

Thanks for your help !

 

My model if a personne know evidences in my parameters....

    Time until a solution is attained is variable and depends on your time step heavily. If your elements keep distorting, your simulation may start at a 3 hour solve time, then when it calculates the next stage it will estimate 3.5 hours due to the deformation. 

     

    You can achieve reduction in sim times with DT/NODA/CST or AMS (see video). You might also consider the multi-domain method.
