How can I define the cell centers without using writeCellCenters?
 
Hello,

I want to define the cell centers so I have the coordinates for my Velocity U and my pressure p without using the command writeCellCenters. I have a mesh that do not move. Can somebody help me and know a method to avoid that the coordinates are written in every time directory?

Thank you in advance.

Hi

You can typically write

Code:
writeCellCentres -help
to see the available options. In your case you can use either

Code:
writeCellCentres -latestTime
writeCellCentres -time <VALUE>
depending on the time folder, where you want the values to be written.

Best regards

Niels

Hi, my question is pretty much related to this thread =)
is it possible to get cell centers only for a cellSet? Not for every cell in my mesh?
