Hello together.

I have got a problem while using the post-processing tool sample.

With my the settings in sampleDict:

Code:
FoamFile
{
    version     2.0;
    format      ascii;
    class       dictionary;
    object      sampleDict;
}
// * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * //

interpolationScheme cell;

setFormat     raw;

sets
(
     pos1    
      {
           type     midPoint;
           axis     y;
           start    (   0.00000000000000        0.000000       0.000000     );
           end      (   0.00000000000000       0.1000000       0.000000     );
      }
     pos2    
      {
           type     midPoint;
           axis     y;
           start    (  0.408163265306122        0.000000       0.000000     );
           end      (  0.408163265306122       0.1000000       0.000000     );
      }
          
.......

     pos49   
      {
           type     midPoint;
           axis     y;
           start    (   19.5918367346939        0.000000       0.000000     );
           end      (   19.5918367346939       0.1000000       0.000000     );
      }
     pos50   
      {
           type     midPoint;
           axis     y;
           start    (   20.0000000000000        0.000000       0.000000     );
           end      (   20.0000000000000       0.1000000       0.000000     );
      }
);


surfaces
();

fields
(
   T
   U
);

// ************************************************************************* /
I'm using a geometry with 40 cells in the y-dimension.
Therefore I thought that there have to be 40 output values at every defined sample position.
Sadly I received just 39 values at some certain points – the value of the last (the 40.) cell is missing in that cases.


Has anyone the same problem? How can I fix it? Is there probably a better way to output defined data than the sample tool?


Thanks a lot - svens

Hey flying - thanks for your reply!

Working with shell-scripts is a really amazing option which I did not considered so far.

Sadly it won't solve my problem cause the sample tool have to be executed before as well...

I am sorry that this is the only information I could provide. I don't have any other idea on it.

Good luck!
