SET_AUTO_GRID_OPTION

Use the SET-AUTO-GRID-OPTION command to set the number of equidistant points in a region (e.g. maximum distance between two adjacent grid points is the size of the region divided by this number) and the maximum factor that is allowed in the geometric series defining the initial grid.

Syntax

SET_AUTO_GRID_OPTION

Prompt

GRID ACCURACY/MEDIUM/:

Press enter to accept the default (MEDIUM), or enter FINE, COARSE, or CUSTOM.

The values for the Grid Accuracy settings for each option differ when calculated by Thermo-Calc based on whether it is the Classic or Homogenization model.

  • If you are using a Classic model: Fine 75/1.25, Medium 50/1.2, Coarse 25/1.15 (Number of points/Max geometric factor)
  • If you are using the Homogenization model: Fine 100/1.03, Medium 80/1.02, Coarse 60/1.01 (Number of points/Max geometric factor)
Custom

If CUSTOM is entered then further define these settings.

MAX NUMBER OF EQUIDISTANT POINTS IN A REGION: /50/:

This value must be more than 2.

VALUE OF R IN THE GEOMETRICAL SERIE : /1.2/:

Value in the geometrical factor in the series determining the distribution of the grid points. A geometrical factor larger than one yields a higher density of gridpoints at the lower end of the region and a factor is smaller than one yields a higher density of gridpoints at the upper end of the region.
