Dear members of the forum,

I have some questions regarding the initialization of the turbo components in CFX post. May someone can help me with this.

First, I will give you more information: I'm using CFX v18.2 and have disabled automatic component ordering in CFX-Post Turbo (see "CFX-Post-Options.png" image).

My Questions are:

• How does component ordering work in Turbo? I mean, how does Turbo determine which component is component 1?
• How can I influence the order? If you look at the "Example" picture, ordering Turbo is wrong, I want it to be as my order was. I have tried to do manual initialization of one component after another in my order, but it does not work.
• Can Turbo initialize only the meshes created by Turbo Grid or also those created by other meshes?

Many thanks in advance

Try to use Perl/"Power Syntax". For example:

! @TurboBlock = ("S0","R0","S1","R1","S2");
! $i=1;
! foreach $TBlock (@TurboBlock)
! {
DATA READER:
CASE:Case $myCase
DOMAIN: $TBlock
Domain Type = Turbo Component
Components to Initialize = Component $i
END
END
END
! }

Hi everyone,

I'm having the same issue in ANSYS Post 2024R1.
The line
Components to Initialize = Component $i
doesn't work.

In the ANSYS Innovation Space it says that you need to order the turbo domains in CFX Pre correctly. But is this necessary and the only way?

It would be appriciated if someone can confirm either the previous solution by Ludvik or the workaround via CFX Pre.

Thank you!

If you start up CFD-Post and record a session file where you do the actions in the script, then you can look at the recorded session file and see what the syntax is in the current version. It is possible that that keyword has been changed.

Edit:

The solution by Ludvik works. "Components to Initialize" is still the correct syntax but I got the rest of the line incorrect since I didn't used the loop and translated the code in a wrong way.

working: Components to Initialize = S0
not working: Components to Initialize = Component S0
not working: Components to Initialize = Component 1

Disable automatic component ordering was necessary!

Thank you Glenn. Your help and the threads in this forum are highly appreciated!
