TwoPhaseEulerFoam output data

paul · September 26, 2007, 10:06

Hello everyone,

I am using the twoPhaseEulerFoam solver. When I view the data in the timestep folders (ie. the alpha folder) the data appears to be in binary, hex, or some other obscure language. Is there a way that the data can be outputted in something viewable, for example numbers like the settlingFoam solver. If someone could help me it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance,

Paul

Hello Paul,
in system/controlDict, set

writeFormat ascii;

writeCompression uncompressed;

With kind regards,
