Store cell information each itteration

wgvanveen · February 6, 2015, 10:12

Dear all,

I would like to analyse the change in the field at some points in te grid per iteration. In other codes I have used in the past it was possible to add a "monitoring point" which stored all the information at that point for each iteration.

Is this already possible in SU2, or should I implement this myself?

Thank you in advance!

That capability seems very interesting but it is not implemente in the code.

Please feel free to fork SU2 with GitHub, add the capability and create a push request.

Thanks for using SU2,

Thank you for your interest! I have made big progress and using the code myself now. However I should make a fresh implementation for the repository. I have one question left. I would like to perform a spectral analysis of part of the monitor point output. For this I need the time-step. I have found the CFL number, but now I need dx to find dt and create a global time. If I am correct dt is variable for each node. Is it possible to retrieve dt?

Thank you in advance!

Hi,

I thin that node[iPoint]->GetDelta_Time() should work for you,

Best Regards,
Francisco
