pseudo_time_method#

class ansys.fluent.core.solver.tui_231.main_menu.solve.set.pseudo_time_method(path, service)#

Bases: TUIMenu

Enters the pseudo time method menu. This menu is only available for cases that use a pressure-based segregated solver (SIMPLE, SIMPLEC, or PISO) or for steady-state cases that use the pressure-based coupled solver or the density-based implicit solver.

Methods:

advanced_options(*args, **kwargs)

Enters the advanced options menu, which allows you to enable / disable the pseudo time method for individual equations and define their pseudo time scale factors or under-relaxation factors, respectively.

convergence_acceleration_for_stretched_meshes(...)

Enable convergence acceleration for stretched meshes to improve the convergence of the implicit pressure based solver on meshes with high cell stretching.

formulation(*args, **kwargs)

Enables and sets the pseudo time step size formulation or disables the pseudo time method option.

global_time_step_settings(*args, **kwargs)

Defines the pseudo time settings for the calculation when the global time step formulation is selected.

local_time_step_settings(*args, **kwargs)

Defines the pseudo time Courant number when the local time step formulation is selected.

relaxation_bounds(*args, **kwargs)

Select relaxation bounding scheme for pseudo time method.

relaxation_factors(*args, **kwargs)

Enters the relaxation factors menu, where you can set the pseudo time explicit relaxation factors for individual equations.

relaxation_method(*args, **kwargs)

Select relaxation definition for pseudo time method.

verbosity(*args, **kwargs)

Sets the verbosity of the messages related to the pseudo time method.

advanced_options(*args, **kwargs)#

Enters the advanced options menu, which allows you to enable / disable the pseudo time method for individual equations and define their pseudo time scale factors or under-relaxation factors, respectively. These settings only apply when the global time step formulation is selected.
