Viewing Solution Contours During CFX Run

m_amin101 · August 3, 2015, 06:46

Hello everyone,

I was wondering if it was possible to monitor solutions contours (Velcoity, pressure..etc) during a CFX run where it would update for every time-step. This is possible in Fluent through "Calculation Activities"

Thanks,

Yes, you can do this. But it is not elegant.

If you are saving results files (which include the mesh) as the simulation progresses you can load these in CFD-Post and view them. These files will be located in the CFX run temporary directory which can be a little tricky to find if you are running workbench.
