ANSYS MAPDL to convert RST results into VTK format
Hello everyone, I am using the ANSYS MAPDL Python library to process the result file file.rst generated by ANSYS Workbench. I want to convert file.rst into VTK format and then render it using ParaView. Here is the code I'm using:
from ansys.mapdl import reader as pymapdl_reader
def convert(input_file, output_file):
result = pymapdl_reader.read_binary(input_file)
result.save_as_vtk(output_file)
if __name__ == '__main__':
convert("./file.rst", "./file.vtk")
the conversion process was successful, and it did not throw any exceptions.
However, when I opened the successfully converted file.vtk file with ParaView, I found that the displacement data was unusually large and appeared to be erroneous. The results are shown in the following image:
the contour data from the results calculated in ANSYS Workbench is as follows:
my calculation result file is as follows:

could you please help me figure out how to solve this problem? thank you.

the displacement data is too large; the correct result should be 0.16047.

Thank you very much. After testing, I found that large displacement anomalies occur whenever I set the boundary condition to 'remote force' in the simulation. Using 'force' does not cause this issue.
