The three outputs for a Source are saved by clicking Final Values and/or Time History at the bottom of the Source editing dialog:
If you are running multiple realizations, the Time History box is ignored, and unless an output is connected to a Time History Result element, no time history results will be saved. In fact, in such a case, the Save Results section would look like this:
In this particular case, because the simulation involves multiple realizations, the “Time History” checkbox is replaced by a “Monte Carlo Histories” checkbox. This checkbox is grayed out, since it is only used for information purposes. You cannot edit it directly, and its appearance is completely determined by whether or not the output is connected to a Time History Result element. That is, in order to save time history results for a Source output when running multiple realizations, you must connect it to a Time History Result element.
In some cases, you may want to disable all results for elements inside the Source.
You can do this using the two buttons located at the bottom of the Information tab or the Source dialog:
Note: The Time
Histories button is only available if you are running a single
realization. If you are running multiple realizations, the state of each
element’sTime History flags are determined by whether or not the element is
referenced by an active Time History Result element. If it is, the flag is
turned on. If it is not, the flag is turned off. In both cases, the flag
is grayed out and cannot be manually changed.
To globally turn off saving of all of the results of a particular type in a Source, simply press the button. A dialog will be displayed asking you to confirm that you wish to turn off the results.
Of course, once you turn off results in a Source, you can subsequently enter the Source and set some of the elements’ results flags back on.
By default, you cannot turn off results for outputs which are linked to Result elements (unless the Result element is a Time History Result element that has been disabled). That is, any output linked to a Result element is automatically saved even if you choose to turn off results using the buttons described above. This behavior can be changed in Time History Result elements (so the outputs linked to the Result element are not automatically saved) by disabling the element.
Note: For Cells inside the
Source, these Global result flags for the Source Container do not impact the
Output Precipitated Mass checkbox.
