Hi, mAx: Is it still possible to have that file? Thanks in advance.
Best regards, Hollande (email: saabqcon@yahoo.ca )

Hello mAx,

I am also very interested with your postprocessing code.

Could you email it to me to nafizkerim@yahoo.com?

Thanks,

Nariz

I will also appreciate if any of the previous recipients of the code can forward me the email mAx send? (I need to do some urgent postpro).

Thank you, Nariz

Hi,

the task is to do some postprocessing with a number of files whose names might not contain sequences of numbers, hence a "for to"- loop with an intenger as a counter is not possible.
One easy way ist to use a scheme "for each" loop. Scheme is a programming language. Fluent 's GUI is written in scheme. Here comes a simple example for reading a list of case+dat files, displaying a contour-plot of temperature on the zones wall, inlet, and outlet, finally generating a hard-copy with the case-filename included in the imagefile-name.

Example:
--------------------------------------------------------------
; Start of the loop (this is a comment!)
(for-each
(lambda (filename)
(ti-menu-load-string (format #f "file read-case-data ~a.cas yes" filename))
(ti-menu-load-string (format #f " /display/set/contours/surfaces (wall inlet outlet)
/display/contour temperature 25 2000
/display/hc ~a-temp.ps " filename ))
)
; list of the filenames here: without extension but one is not obliged to do so
'(
filename_A
filename02
file_XYA
hidden_tank
lost_water
)
; closing the loop:
)

--------------------------------------------------------------

The "~a" is a variable which is replaced by the content of the loop variable "filename". "filename" takes the values from the list at the bottom of the example above: filename_A, filename02, file_XYA as input. You are free to use any fiilname you like without the need to number them in a correct way.

The scheme file can be red into fluent via /file/read/scheme (GUI) or /file/read-macro (TUI).

In contrast to a script-loop the scheme-loop is carried out here inside one Fluent session.

For more details for the use of scheme together with fluent have a look to http://fluid.jku.at/personen/javurek/pdf/scheme.pdf (in German!!).

Thanks for your scheme file example and PDF file. This is much useful and reduces the postprocessing time for unsteady cases.:D:)

about the journal

Hi,
I don't khow if you have to change few constants in your simulation, but I would like to ask you if you have to modify the turbulente constants models using the journal.
My probleme that I use also a journal to make all the simulation ready and to start them, but I don't khow how to do for changing the turbulence model constants. We can do that directly in the interface when using in windows, but doing that in script i don't know. If you have sommes ideas, it will be gerat for me.
Thanks you,
Joven

Yes, unforntunately you cannot use capital letters or in a more correct way they are interpreted as lowercase which are then are not found by the OS.

A workaround on linux sytems is to link the files with capitals in to the same without by e.g. a symbolic link like:
ln -s Existing.dat existing.dat

(no additional disk space is used. It works like a pointer!)

Hint: does not work on ntfs filesystems mounted via samba to linux.

Hi max can u send me the code for me........please send it to coolsandeepg@gmail.com

thanks a ton!!

Hi,

i also wrote such a kind of matlab routine. It may be a little cumbersome at first, but i added several comments and this should help.

Hi Max....

will you be kind enough to send me the file too... i will be thankful. my email is aamer58@gmail.com.
