SubscriberI am trying to run a AM process simulation.This is time sensitive. Need an ansys support engineer. but im getting an error "
*** ERROR *** CP = 40.844 TIME= 12:00:40
On the AMBU,TIME command, the recoating time value 0 is not valid. The
command is ignored. "Here is the whole solution text
