Exporting Point Cloud Data From ANSYS Fluent to Excel or Matlab

Wind_Wizard · January 22, 2015, 10:45

Im doing a 2D analysis of a pin-fin heat sink and have overlaid a reactangular point grid over the flow domain in Ansys Post. I now need to export the data points with their individual temperatures to either Excel or Matlab to generate a surface plot. Is there any easy way of achieving this??

You could try to export the temperature with geometry information in csv format
