Another "hidden" factor relates to how ANSYS internally numbers nodes. The error check is not always against the of nodes, but rather against the highest node ID number . When you use features like remote points , ANSYS assigns a large, arbitrary number to the pilot node.
Use symmetry planes or axes to simulate only one-half, one-quarter, or one-eighth of the model. 2. Simplify the Geometry Another "hidden" factor relates to how ANSYS internally
If you trigger this error, use these strategies to bring your model back within compliance. Solution 1: Optimize and Coarsen the Mesh Use symmetry planes or axes to simulate only
Use geometry tools to remove small, unnecessary features that force a fine mesh. 2. Utilize Symmetry Solution 1: Optimize and Coarsen the Mesh Use
When you are stuck with the error, follow this checklist:
If upgrading to a commercial or higher-tier Ansys license solution is not an option, you must optimize your simulation to run under the threshold. 1. Execute Mesh Renumbering (Fixes Node ID Inflation)
If you are a student, researcher, or engineer working with Ansys simulation software, you may have encountered a frustrating message during the solution phase:
