Exit out of Autodesk® Simulation CFD, and then exit out of Pro/Engineer. Set the number of iterations to 0, so that after meshing and pre-processing, the analysis does not proceed.To access Pro/Engineer, do one of the following: Pro/Engineer returns to a “sleep” state, and cannot be accessed.

Once Autodesk® Simulation CFD returns, the analysis proceeds automatically. For this reason, Autodesk® Simulation CFD must be launched from Pro/Engineer when the goal is to generate a mesh. It is accessing the part and assembly information in the same way that Pro/Mesh accesses it. The mesh is being generated by Autodesk® Simulation CFD by reading the part geometry from the Pro/Engineer database.

When you click the Solve button on the Autodesk® Simulation CFD Solve task dialog, Pro/Engineer maximizes, but is working.

Upon launching, Pro/Engineer minimizes, and is in a “sleep” state. Guidelines for using the Mechanica-based launch methodįor a new analysis, Autodesk® Simulation CFD MUST be launched from Pro/Engineer. Note: The Mechanica method is not available with Autodesk® Simulation CFD 360.
