How to get data from unsteady solution?

asdf0901 · June 1, 2009, 14:35

Hi,
I am trying to model a jet entering a quiescent fluid. I want to use LES as turbulence model. And my problem will be unsteady.

But I can't get the data for the intermediate time steps. For example, If I run the simulation for 30 sec, I can't get the data at 10 or 20 sec.

Can anyone help me out?
Thanks

Jamil

Hi,

If you want to view results for a moment in time, you need to have data for this time step. I belive it is easiest to enable autosave option and store your results every few timesteps with appropriate appendix in file name. That way you will be able to view each saved time step

Hope that helps
