USER_GETVAR
 

Hello CFXers,

Is it possible to use USER_GETVAR with a User CEL FORTRAN Function twice to obtain two pointers to two different variables?

I want to define a source based on two different mass fractions.

Is this possible with User FORTRAN in CFX 5.6?

Thanks,

Jonathan

Hi Jonathan

You can call user_getvar() as many times as you like within a User CEL Function. Just declare separate pointers for each variable you want to get.

Thank you for your reply, Johnson. I must not understand the User FORTRAN well enough. Isn't RZ the only real pointer variable that you are allowed to declare? Or do I have to set RZ up as an array?

Hi Jonathan

RZ() is the complete working real stack/array for the solver. A pointer returned from user_getvar() (e.g. pVAR1, if you've declared this as a __stack_point__ variable), is a pointer into this stack. Different variables will be located at different locations in the stack, so all you need to declare is a separate pointer for each variable you want to retrieve with user_getvar(), i.e. each time you want to call user_getvar().

Hope this helps,

Johnson

dear all
Now I am trying to couple CFX with other code.
