8. Edit units, solve the solution, and post process results

Edit units and solve the Solution

  1. Modify the solution Output Units to match your output units to the model units, which must be in the MKS system. Right-click your solution, Solution 1Edit Advanced Solver OptionsOutput File→select (N)(m)(kg). Click OK to close the Advanced Solver Options dialog box.For more information, see Checking the completeness of your model prior to a solve.

  2. Save the model files.

  3. Right-click the Solution you just modified and choose Solve.

  4. When the solve is complete, close all the information windows.

  5. Post-process the solution using Post-Processing Scenario to display output requests.For more information, see Scenario-based post-processing. Example acoustic pressure output at a selected frequency

How do I

Create a Fan Noise load and solution

  1. Import the CFD pressure data

  2. Map the CFD fan mesh to transient fan blade elements

  3. Set the fan parameters and rotation axis

4.Convert the pressure data to fan blade force

  1. Create an acoustic SOL 108 Direct Frequency Response solution

  2. Create a Fan Noise load or loads

  3. Edit the solution to add Output Requests and Harmonics
