PyMAPDL:Plotting Nodal Temperatures in a Thermal (Fourier Heat Conduction) Problem

Sherlock007

Hi,

After mapdl.solu() I am attempting to plot the solution nodal temperatures:

I found two ways of doing that:

1)
result = mapdl.result result.plot_nodal_temperature(0)

2) mapdl.post1() mapdl.set(1,1) mapdl.post_processing.plot_nodal_temperature()

Method 1 seems to work -> It matches with MAPDL solutions and satisfies the temperature BC's applied

Method 2: does not seems to work at all.

What is the issue? Could you please help?

My guess is you have more than 1 load/sub step and need to change
mapdl.set(1,1)
to
mapdl.set('last')
