Transfer of data from one simulation to another.

sreekargomatam · January 1, 2015, 00:36

I have two simulations running, Simulation A and Simulation B. Is it possible to extract data for a particular zone in simulation A and use it in simulation B given the mesh, domain and boundary conditions remain the same? Also, can the same be done if the mesh size in A and B vary, by interpolation.

Thanks in advance.

If you use Ansys FLUENT you can duplicate your simulation by right click on your work cells in workbench window
good luck

In GUI, for SimA go to file => interpolate. choose write data and select the fields you want to export. Then for SimB go file=> interpolate again but choose read and interpolate and choose the file that you saved earlier.

The TUI commands is /file/interpolate/write-data

As far as I know, FLUENT uses 0D (nearest neighbor interpolation).
