Conduct initialization with a old mesh solution

September 1, 2007, 08:09

Hi, everyone. I got a solution with grid 'gird-A'. Now I refine the boundary mesh and have a new grid 'grid-B' for the same geometry. Because the computation is time expensive and I don't want to start the new iteration from scratch. So can I start the new calculation with old 'grid-A' solution as the initialization? My fluent version is 6.3.26.

Yes you can using the file/interpolate option. There is also help available on the fluent users website also
