To access this dialog, ensure that you have run the 3D mesher on your part, you have selected an analysis sequence that includes Cool (FEM), and in the you have selected from the Mold temperature options drop-down menu. Then click on the button.
Once you have selected the solver to run, you can specify the following solver parameters:
| Dialog Property | Comment | Default value |
|---|---|---|
| Select the solver you would like to use to calculate the heat flux. The is faster, but the provides more accurate results. | Conduction | |
| This applies to the temperature in the part. Specify how often you would like the conduction solver to determine the temperature of the part, during the Injection + packing +cooling time period you specified in the Process Settings Wizard. | For Conduction solver only | |
| Enter a value between the limits specified. The convergence tolerance applies to the % change in mold temperature, from one iteration to the next. The lower the tolerance the more accurate the result, but the longer the analysis. | 0.10000 | |
| Select the maximum number of mold-temperature iterations you would like the analysis to perform. If the result does not converge before this maximum value, you will receive an error message. | 50 | |
| Specify whether you want the software to detect and use a supported GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) card when running an analysis, to speed up the analysis. | Automatic | |
| Select one of the drop-down options to configure parallel computation. This will improve solution speed, especially for large models. | Automatic |
