problem with the "initial time step".

[Marcox]

Good morning, everyone.

I am carrying out a thermodynamic simulation on a lithium ion battery for autotraction on ansys workbench.
are in transient thermal environment.
I've set all the screens and I have to decide how many steps to do and how long to make them. Given previous results I have 200 step bison from one second each.

After trying a simulation with 40 steps from 5 seconds, I now want to set 200 steps from one second each.
result, it gives me error the item "initial time step". I tried to remove the car time stopping but this way the simulation never ends. What can I do?

mention the fact that before setting steps from 5 seconds I had safely simulated 100 steps from one second each.

Thank you.

ps: annexed the problem

steps o substeps?
immagino tu sia interessato ai substep.
in questo caso:
number of steps: 1
current step: 1
step end time: 200s
initial time step: 1s
minimum time step: 0.01s
maximum time step: 1s
output controls: every time step

you're telling me that the rumors:
initial time step: 1s
minimum time step: 0.01s
maximum time step: 1s
do they refer to substeps?

in the annex to your first post (in which among other things you did not show up) there is an image written in the first row
number of steps: 1
below we talk about substep.
I invite you to study well the relevant tutorials in this forum.

I introduced myself to the topic, I thought it was enough.
Anyway, I'll be right back. :smile:

My name is Marco and I'm a mechanical engineering student.
This is my work of thesis, masterful.

I thank you for the help even if I have no clear answer, I put myself down to give a read to the link you passed me.

Thank you very much.
