Hi

Hi Amir
Thanks a lot for your response. I tried it in the following way. First read the cas and dat file. The write-->start journal. Then by TUI command surface>iso-surface of>x-coordiante. the it wants new surface ID/Name. There i pur x-1. the form surface (). It wants iso value [(1)]. i put 2. Then it again wants iso value [(2)]. i put here (). Then it gives range [0, 3000]. The write -->stop journal. Is it the journal file. Then I create an iso-surface at x=1 and read the journal file. But it does not create the required iso-surfaces. If my procedure is wrong, could you describe it completely. It will be a great help for me. My email address is tajul000@yahoo.com
Have a nice time.

Hi,
I recommend you not to use write->start journal in FLUENT because it uses some GUI command that may be so confusing.
you can handle that with these commands:
Quote:

/surface/iso-surface/xc
x-1 () () 0 ()
now e.g. with a simple fortran code write similar commands in a desired file and use that as a journal file like:
Quote:

/surface/iso-surface/xc
x-1 () () 1 ()
/surface/iso-surface/xc
x-2 () () 2 ()
/surface/iso-surface/xc
x-3 () () 3 ()
and so on ...
