Dear All,
As I am interested to write a particular cell data from the whole domain in SU2 code, because When I am writing the data for a full domain it is taking too much time and memory.
Can anyone please help me to do this ?


Thanks in advance

You can add monitoring points, which are called probes in SU2.


The documentation is here:
https://su2code.github.io/docs_v7/Custom-Output/


You could do this to output the velocity in a point P(0.1, 0.2, 0.3):

CUSTOM_OUTPUTS='velocity : Macro{sqrt(pow(VELOCITY_X, 2) + pow(VELOCITY_Y, 2) + pow(VELOCITY_Z, 2))};\
point1 : Probe{$velocity}[0.1, 0.2, 0.3]'

Dear,
Thanks a lot for your response.

I was using the same documents given in the SU2 webpage but It is giving error.


I have used

CUSTOM_OUTPUTS= 'velocity : Macro{sqrt(pow(VELOCITY_X, 2) + pow(VELOCITY_Y, 2) + pow(VELOCITY_Z, 2))};\
avg_vel : AreaAvg{$velocity}[z_minus, z_plus];\
var_vel : AreaAvg{pow($velocity - avg_vel, 2)}[z_minus, z_plus];\
dev_vel : Function{sqrt(var_vel) / avg_vel};\
probe1 : Probe{$velocity}[0.005, 0.005, 0.05]'


But the error in the terminal is shown as

Error in "void CFlowOutput::ConvertVariableSymbolsToIndices(const CPrimitiveIndices<long unsigned int>&, bool, COutput::CustomOutput&) const":
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Invalid history output or solver variable (VELOCITY_Z) used in function avg_vel

VELOCITY_X
VELOCITY_Y
TURB[0,1,...]
RAD[0,1,...]
SPECIES[0,1,...]
SCALAR[0,1,...]

------------------------------ Error Exit -------------------------------


I would like to tell you that I am interested in finding out the temperature for a specific point and dont want to write the temperature for all the domain.



Thanks in advance

If I am removing the Z points from the probe, still not writing the specific cell data. Still writing the whole domain data without any error.

Where are you looking?

[vivekdixit194]

Dear,
I am adding few lines as suggested by you in my config file,


CUSTOM_OUTPUTS= 'velocity : Macro{sqrt(pow(VELOCITY_X, 2) + pow(VELOCITY_Y, 2))};\
avg_vel : AreaAvg{$velocity}[z_minus, z_plus];\
var_vel : AreaAvg{pow($velocity - avg_vel, 2)}[z_minus, z_plus];\
dev_vel : Function{sqrt(var_vel) / avg_vel};\
probe1 : Probe{$velocity}[0.1032, 0.8036]'

SCREEN_OUTPUT= INNER_ITER, RMS_DENSITY, RMS_ENERGY, LINSOL_RESIDUAL, FORCE_Z,\
SURFACE_MASSFLOW, SURFACE_TOTAL_TEMPERATURE, avg_vel, dev_vel, probe1, COMBO
HISTORY_OUTPUT = ITER, AERO_COEFF, FLOW_COEFF, FLOW_COEFF_SURF, CUSTOM, COMBO
OBJECTIVE_FUNCTION= CUSTOM_OBJFUNC
CUSTOM_OBJFUNC= 'SURFACE_TOTAL_TEMPERATURE'


But After running my code, Still It is writing Whole volume file as I am not interested in writing the values for all the domain.


Please help me to write only cell data because it is taking 4MB file for a single iteration.

[vivekdixit194]

Dear,
Can you please help me to write only probe data ?


CUSTOM_OUTPUTS='temperature : Macro{TEMPERATURE};\
probe1 : Probe{$temperature}[0.1032, 0.8036]'

[bigfootedrockmidget]

I meant in which output file are you looking, it seems that you are looking in the volume output file, but the custom output is written to the history file.

Dear,

Got it.
Thank you so much for your help.

[vivekdixit194]

Dear,


I am getting Error.


Error in "void COutput::ComputeSimpleCustomOutputs(const CConfig*)":
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The current solver can only use 'Function' custom outputs.
------------------------------ Error Exit -------------------------------

I am using MULTIPHYSICS solver and trying to write the files in ELASTICITY Solver.
Why i am getting this error ?. Please help me to fix this.



thanks in advance
