Convergence problem in ANSYS Workbench

Click For Summary
The convergence error in ANSYS Workbench indicates inadequate constraints in the model, leading to uncontrolled rigid body motion. To resolve this, it is essential to apply appropriate constraints to prevent such motion, possibly through the use of contact sets. If the model involves rotation or linear movement, additional constraints should be implemented. Clarification on whether the model pertains to a chuck on roll handling equipment may provide further insights into the specific constraints needed. Properly constraining the model is crucial for achieving a successful solution.

Hi, i solved a model but i got an error saying that "The solver engine was unable to converge on a solution for the non linear problem as constrained". Can someone offer advice on how i can fix this error?

It sounds like you have not adequately constrained the problem. You need to avoid uncontrolled rigid body motion as much as possible. If some rotation or linear is required, you need to constrain it somehow, possibly using contact sets. Is this some type of chuck on a roll handling equipment?
 

Thread 'UV filter for home central heating?'

Had my central air system checked when it sortta wasn't working. I guess I hadn't replaced the filter. Guy suggested I might want to get a UV filter accessory. He said it would "kill bugs and particulates". I know UV can kill the former, not sure how he thinks it's gonna murder the latter. Now I'm finding out there's more than one type of UV filter: one for the air flow and one for the coil. He was suggesting we might get one for the air flow, but now we'll have to change the bulb...
