Result Defaults
Add a Result Defaults node () to a physics interface or multiphysics interface to create customized plot groups that are added to a model you solve for it in the Model Builder. One Result Defaults node is available for each physics or multiphysics interface.
To add a Result Defaults node, first add a Physics Interface or Multiphysics Interface then,
•
On the Physics Interface toolbar, click the Result Defaults button , or
•
Right-click the Physics Interface or Multiphysics Interface node and select it from the context menu.
Right-click the Result Defaults node add plot groups, plots, derived values, and data sets. Add the Usage Condition node to vary the result defaults. Also right-click to add the Plot Defaults subnode and further define default expression of variables to use for newly created plots of certain types.
It is common to specify one default for 3D and another for 2D, because you usually use different plot groups and different plot types.
Most of the nodes you can add to Result Defaults work in the same way as in the Model Builder. This section only describes the nodes that differ significantly or do not have a counterpart in the Model Builder.
In the Settings window form most of the nodes you can add to Result Defaults, there is Settings section where you can define a description for the node. By default, it uses the default name of the node. Select the Description check box to enter and use another node description.
The Settings window has one section:
Settings
Select the Plot in spatial frame check box if you want the result plots to be plotted in the spatial frame instead of the default material frame. Select it if plotting for the parent physics interface should be done in the spatial frame by default.
Most of the nodes in a result defaults setting work in exactly the same way as in the Model Builder. This chapter only describes the nodes that differ significantly or do not have a counterpart in the Model Builder. This section includes all the information about the Plot Defaults.
