You can create Report Definitions in Fluent and have them printed in the TUI, plotted as a monitor, and saved to a text file. Once you close the session, the monitor plot is gone. However, the data is in a text file in the working directory. After re-opening Fluent, is there a post-processing tool that can look at the data text file, read it, and re-create the monitor plot?

Thanks in advance!

To view report plots after you close and re-open, you need to use 'XY-plot' and load the output file that was generated. FLUENT doesn't load those files automatically.

This works. However, do you know how I can have more control over the labels on the X/Y plot axes? My file contains mass flux per timestep. I don't see either of those natively available in the options of the X-Y Plot dropdown menus.

Nevermind. I found it. There is an "Axes" button at the bottom of the X-Y Plot GUI. Therein, you can set up the axes as desired.

Thanks!
