Get the Particles ID

souria · December 3, 2014, 09:30

Hey every one,

I'm using DPM for particles tracking. So, I write UDF that let me track velocity (U,V,W) and positions of every particle that touch the bottom. But, Now I want to have the ID of these particles ! I don't know which symbol to use for such stuff :
Herein is the line :

fprintf (f2, "%f %f %f %f %f %f %e \n",x,y,z,velpu,velpv,velpw,P_INJ_ID(P_INJECTION(p )));

So it gave me the x,y,z,u,v,w but it gave me 0 for the ID !!!

I suppose P_INJ_ID(P_Injection(p) isn't the right one ???

Help please

Thanks

Thank you, I have found the solution :

I should put : ID=p->part_id instead P_INJ_ID(P_INJECTION(p))

Nice day

i have used your solution but it's still give me 0 for particle id. is it because the newer version of fluent? I use ansys 16

I change the % to %e and know it gives me a number with e-323. does it not a simple integer?

^ and ^^

use TP_ID(tp) and display it as a real number
