How do I increase the quality of the resulted video from Ansys Fluent simulation?

KikoAzor · April 10, 2019, 13:47

Hey! I am working on a flow analysis over a 2D airfoil.. I simulated the situation at different angles of attack, put it at 400 interations and everything works well in programme, although after when I check the video of it in a file, it has a very poor quality, I cannot even read the scale... Does anyone know how to improve the quality of a video? Thank you

Hi Kiko,

If you have license for ANSYS EnSight, then you can do post processing with EnSight to obtain very high quality animations. Remember to export the data in EnSight case gold format for faster processing.

If you have to use Fluent to create animations, I would recommend saving pictures at specified time steps or iterations using Auto Export and then combining the images using a tool like FFMPEG. I have obtained some good quality animations using this method.

Good Luck.
