Torque in local Coordinate Frame

Spinassien · July 10, 2014, 13:08

In CFX-Post i used the calculator to calculate torque of a Body about the global coordinate frame - no problem. Now i try to calculate Torque about a local coordinate frame (defined by myself in CFX-Pre (meshtool) ) in a steady state simulation. After solving i startet CFX-Post went to the calculator tab and the only c-frame in the dropdown-menu is the global. What am i doing wrong?

Coordinate frames created in CFX-Pre are not passed down to CFD-Post.

You must create the coordinate frame in CFD-Post to be used in the calculator.
