Swap out a mesh

Eman Eal · September 19, 2022, 18:53

Howdy,

I am running batch simulations. I have several fluent .msh files. I would like to be able to swap the mesh in my CFX simulation out for test as if I had manually changed the geometry in workbench and then updated the simulation.

Currently I have been able to import the mesh but it simply treats it as a second object.

Does anyone know how to do this, idealy via macros.

Thanks a lot.

Record a session file in CFX-Pre where you do all the actions you want, including deleting the second mesh object and sorting all that out. Then look at the session file and you can see the syntax for replacing a mesh.
