Import Fluent Mesh and Boundary Conditions

BTU-RoRo · July 23, 2010, 07:30

Hi I have a Case with a complex Mesh 30 Millions Knots, and over hundred Boundary Conditions.
I made the Calculation last Year with Fluent.

Can I Import the mesh and the Boundary Conditions to CFX ?

I can import the mesh thats no problem. And I can make the Post-processing with Ansys but how can i convert the case dat to CCL?

My Ansys Version is 12.0 Sp1 Ansys WB Multi Physics.

There's no import mechanism for Fluent boundary conditions, you'll have to re-enter them.

Why? Ansys CFX and Fluent are in one Company...

And its only one Text file.. that has to be converted..

thats weak.

Think about it... you'd have to map Fluent settings to CFX settings for all boundary conditions, but in many cases they are not equivalent.
