Export mesh from CFX
 
Is there any way to obtain the mesh from CFX (pre or post - .cfx or .res) ? I would like to receive the deformed mesh of the fluid domain due to FSI. Any suggestions appreciated ;).

I use ICEM for that.
File -> import mesh -> from CFX.

I used ICEM for this also, but it used to be that you had to pass the results into CFXPRE, write out a def file, then read that into ICEM, in order to get the deformed mesh into ICEM. If you didnt do this, you get the original mesh in ICEM.

I last did this in V13 or V14. I am not sure they have updated ICEM to allow direct import of this type.

In v16 you get an warning:
Quote:
-- WARNING -- This results file contains multiple meshes. The latest mesh will be loaded, which will be the deformed mesh for a case that includes Mesh Deformation. If the original undeformed mesh is required, you should load the case file (.cfx) or the CFX-Solver input file (.def) instead.
So it seems that they have updated ICEM to account for the deformed mesh.
