Backup File in CFX-pre

MissCFD · March 10, 2015, 17:02

Hi,

I would like to know how can we use/read the .bak file result from the option ''Selected Variables'' in CFX-pre. I can't read this file in CFX post. I have this error: Error reading number of domains (G/NZN). Is this normal because in user’s guide of CFX pre, it is noted ‘’No restart is possible from this files’’?

Thank you

Did you include the mesh for the specific file setup ? For Standard files, the mesh is included, for selected variables file it is the user responsibility to include or not to include the mesh.
