Export hybrid values of monitor points

Lance · May 11, 2011, 08:38

Hi,
I have a bunch of monitor points of an additional variable on a surface which I want to export in the solver. Is it possible to get the hybrid values when exporting or do I have to go through the post-processor? I only seem to get the conservative values in the solver... ?

Yes, I think you can only get conservative values in the solver. Need the post processor for hybrid values. You may be able to manually recreate it though - the only place the hybrid values are different are adjacent to boundries, so if you know the boundary value you can manually use that rather than the conservative value.

Too bad that I need the post-processor, but I guess there is nothing to do about it. Maybe I'll put in a feature request to Ansys about it.

Thanks Glenn.
