NWRITE, Fname, Ext, --, KAPPND
Writes nodes to a file.
FnameFile name and directory path (248 characters maximum, including the characters needed for the directory path). An unspecified directory path defaults to the working directory; in this case, you can use all 248 characters for the file name.
The file name defaults to Jobname.
ExtFilename extension (eight-character maximum).
The extension defaults to NODE if Fname is
blank.
--Unused field.
KAPPNDAppend key:
0 | — | Rewind file before the write operation. |
1 | — | Append data to the end of the existing file. |
Writes selected nodes [NSEL] to a file. The write
operation is not necessary in a standard ANSYS run but is provided as a convenience to users
wanting a coded node file. Data are written in a coded format. The format used is (I9, 6G21.13E3)
to write out
NODE,X,Y,Z,THXY,THYZ,THZX.
If the last number is zero (THZX = 0), or the last set of numbers are
zero, they are not written but are left blank. Therefore, you must use a formatted read to
process this file. Coordinate values are in the global Cartesian system.
