Hello guys,

I got a .case file which is previously has been created and see that a boundary condition,velocity inlet, has .prof (profile data) in all directions. I got .prof file in same folder and looked via .notepad. But i am looking for how that .prof had been created. Possibly it has been get a previous .dat file. How does it extract as .prof file for any boundary condition (for previous .dat file) ?

Because it is not possible to write it manually in text file.

Really in advance appreciated!

Either it was manually created or it is the solution data written by Fluent into a .prof format. Fluent simply writes the data of chosen variables at faces/nodes (I can't remember which).

Thank you,

I have resolved the problem. Similarly, can we also extract temperature/pressure/velocity of interest for the any "CELL ZONE" ?

Hi Oozcan,

Please can you tell us how you resolved the issue, for anyone who finds this thread in the future?

My suggestion was going to be to try writing out a settings file. This can only be done through typing a TUI command into the command window: /file/write-settings. I think this creates a profile file for any loaded profiles.

For writing and reading cell-zone data, look at the top menu item File...Interpolate. (Bear in mind, though, that reading in an interpolation file can be hit-and-miss when the meshes are not identical.)

Good luck!
Ed

I don't see where there is any problem...?

Profiles can be written for boundaries or cell zones.

There are several ways to extract data from any cell zone, not necessarily involving a .prof file. What is your asking about? What do you need help with?

I figured out how I set .prof file for the new one .case file. But I really have not seen the cell zone by using .prof file. If it not possible, how can I extract cell zone of interest to new .case file? what is the way I get?

Best Regards,
