Particle coordinates

rana41671 · August 30, 2010, 13:29

Hi,

I am trying to simulate particle transport in a combustor and need individual particle/particle packet coordinates for other post-processing, but apparently I am not able to see any available variable which can let me do that. Any help will be appreciated.

Simulation type : Steady state (non-reactive, single fluid with solid particles)
Particle Coupling : Fully Coupled
Only Schiller Naumann drag force is modeled and any other forces are set as none.

Thanks
Sandeep

Export the particle tracks from CFD-Post. Easy, and gives the location of each particle at each integration set.

Thanks Glenn,

So basically, I can export them as csv file with any of the other variable selected. Will that be interpolated values or does it keeps tracks of individual packet?
