call data generated by Fluent

gxu2 · November 8, 2012, 19:36

Hi,

I want to call data, like "drag coefficient" generated by Fluent every time step by employing UDF, and make some calculations then some data generated again, and newly generated "drag coefficient" is called again by UDF, and so on so forth.
so how to call the data? How to write the UDF?

Further, the data format type saved is "file", not ".txt", then any good idea to solve this problem.

Thank you in advance!

Best regards!

You can find it in "dpm.h" header file.
