How to Increase the Calculation Speed

There are many approaches to increase the calculation speed.

Five approaches are introduced below.

1. Model

  • Utilize the Symmetry.

  • Utilize 2D approximation or axisymmetric models.

 

See[Reconsider the Model] for the detail.

2. Matrix Solver

  • Switch the matrix solver between direct method and iterative method.

  • Change the matrix solver setting.

 

See[Calculation Speed Setting (Matrix Solver)] for the detail.

3. Optimizing mesh and element

  • Set the specific mesh size for a part of the model.

  • Use the adaptive mesh method.

  • Use the 1st-order element.

 

See [Simulation Accuracy Setting (Mesh/Element)] for the detail.

Note that an increase in calculation speed can bring about a decrease in simulation accuracy.

4. PC Setting

  • Check the PC Setting.

 

The calculation speed may decrease depending on the PC settings.

See [Recommendations on PC environment].

 

5. PC Updating

  • Use high-performance PC

 

See [Recommended PC Specifications for Femtet].
