hello I'm new in CFX
In my project it is needed to change velocity on inlet from 1 m/s to 10 m/s in 1 m/s step.
All other boundary conditions and settings stay unchanged.
So my question is if it possible to create table of boundary conditions that after finished calculations on 1 m/s program will automatically import new B.C from table and start calculations?

which version are you using? it´s quite easy but depending on the version. create a batch run with a loop over the desired velocities via editing the def.file before each run OR create a def.-file for each velocity an loop them. OR create a setup with starting conditions in WB2.0. and change the velocity in every setup.

Let´s suppose you have a directory with the desired def.-files.
def1ms def2ms,.. it would be smth. like

@defname=<*.def>
foreach $defname(@defname){
cfx5solve -def $defname
print "calculating $defname \n"
}
ending up in solving every def-file WITHOUT using the last result.

or you do it by executing

cfx5solve -def def1ms.def
cfx5solve -def def2ms.def -ini def1ms_001.res
cfx5solve -def def3ms.def -ini def2ms_001.res
...


Save the code in a file with the ending *.pl, copy it to the directory containing the def.-files, open the command line (from within CFX-Launcher) after changing the current working directory and then do a cfx5perl *.pl

hope that helps,

neewbie

P.S.: if you have to check for some errors, let me know.
