What you should do:
1. Open Fluent.
2. Load your model.
3. Go to the user-defined-functions, compilation option.
4. Select your source file.
5. Click 'build'.
6. Select the text shown in the text user interface.
7. Press control and C.
8. Go to this screen, and click 'reply'.
9. Press control and V.
10. Click 'Submit reply'.

If you don't do this, I can not help you.

Good day sir,

What does it mean by step number 6?

Thank you

If you open Fluent, you see:

- On the left, a menu (Setup, Solution, Results...)
- On the upper right, the graphical interface, where you normally see the results.
- On the lower right, a box with text. That one is the Text user interface.

When I start it, it shows:

As you do things in Fluent, more text will be shown there. Also something will be shown there after you click 'build'. This is the place where errors will be shown!

Dear sir,

May I ask, my code has been successfully compiled using

Fluent 6.3.26 and Microsoft Visual Studio C++ 2008. I am opening Fluent 6.3.26 using VS
Windows Prompt ...

However, it cannot work with latest version Fluent Version 16.

May I seek your advice on what's is the matter with Fluent 16 with my Fluent codes...Is my codes is in 32 bits?

Currently I am in progress to
download Visual Studio 2015.

Thank you so much sir.

I think I made it more than clear what you need to do before I can help you.
As long as you ignore that, I simply can not help you, so I will ignore you.

cik mimi · April 8, 2016, 08:33

But..I just asking a question

pakk · April 8, 2016, 08:40

It is not that I don't want to answer you until you show the error.
I can not answer you until you show the error.

cik mimi · April 10, 2016, 22:15

Good day sir,
This is my error shown in the fluent screen

Build Time: Oct 24 2013 12:05:41 Build Id: 10399

Done.

This means you don't have a compiler installed, or at least Fluent can not find it.

So your problem has nothing to do with your udf code, but with your installation of Fluent. Search for this text on this forum for explanations on how to solve it.

cik mimi · April 11, 2016, 05:02

Thank you sir

cik mimi · April 13, 2016, 08:56

Good day, may I ask, if we can solve th errors, can we directly open the fluent without using the command prompt?
Thank you.

pakk · April 13, 2016, 09:05

I don't understand what you are exactly asking.
You can always start Fluent directly, without using the command prompt. But if you do this, you will not be able to compile.

So, if you would solve all the problems and make a successful compilation of your udf, then you could stop Fluent, restart it without the command prompt, load the compiled version of the UDF, and continue. But if you want to change anything in your UDF, you have to exit Fluent again, and start it again from the command prompt.

cik mimi · April 13, 2016, 09:10

Thank you...
My objective is to load a model before do the udf compilation. I see if It works without using cpmmand prompt.

pakk · April 13, 2016, 09:13

Surely you can load the model before you do compilation.
But UDF compilation will not work without command prompt.

cik mimi · April 13, 2016, 09:15

Okey.
Maybe I need to modified udf codes, so that it can open normally without command prompt

pakk · April 13, 2016, 09:19

Please read very carefully what I type.

You can not COMPILE a UDF without the command prompt. It does not matter which code is in the UDF, because none of them will work.

You can LOAD a model without the command prompt. Again, it does not matter which code is in the UDF: once your UDF is compiled, you don't need the command prompt any more.

Okey sir, I try to digest each of your words. If any inquiries, I will in this forum. Thank you for your kind guidance

cik mimi · April 19, 2016, 05:48

Good day,

May i ask, if the udf code is safely compile with no errors,

is it possible to safely load the model and doing the simulation?

Thank you.

pakk · April 19, 2016, 05:53

The best way to find out is by trying.

(I don't know what you mean with 'safely'. The worst that can happen is that the simulation will not run.)

cik mimi · April 19, 2016, 05:57

Okey, I try it first

cik mimi · April 20, 2016, 10:03

Good evening sir,

May I ask, I am wondering to download the Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 4 because I want to solve for the compilation error says "It does not compatible with the current platform". However, the download is failed in my current Fluent version 16. I have perform a good compilation of the udf code in other computer and is it okey if I just transfer the folder Microsoft Windows SDK packages with just using the pendrive?
Thank you sir.
