Animation Output File (A-File)
The RunnameAnnn file is a binary file, containing both model and result data. It can be used to post-process results in HyperView.
File Creation
The RunnameAnnn files are created during a Radioss Engine run. These files are written under the name RunnameAnnn, with nnn being the output file number.
