write a .def file in CFX-pre from the Command line

Stels · April 28, 2016, 08:11

Hello my dear friends,
I intend to write a definition file(input) in CFXpre for the cfx5. solver using the command line from a mesh .gtm and a .ccl file
Now i found this post in the internet > http://www.eureka.im/3852.html
but it doesnt really help me.
Would also help me if you had some advice generally where to seek info about working throug command-line(for cfx.solver prette good explanation in the documentation but for CFXpre coudnt find something comparable)
I am a real newby in CFX, would be very thanfull for any help!)

If you are a real newby as you say, wouldn't it be better to start making a a def file from CFXpre? Import your mesh and ccl then click on the button that says, write definition file. Why do you want to write it from the command line?

well ok) my be the definition "newby" is to hard.
i already can set up my simulation from the GUI and got the results i needed. Now for my working pupose it is nessesary to do all this work whit a "skript" using the command line in order the to integrate it in a larger simulation circuit.
Thank you!)

Either
Record a session file in cfxpre and look at the output. Then run cfx5pre -batch mysessionfile.pre
or
Check the manual for whatever command line syntax you need.
