pressure previous time steps

silversea12 · August 8, 2023, 12:34

There were these two macros, C_P_M1(c,t) and C_P_M2(c,t), to get pressure previous time steps in the earlier versions of Ansys Fluent.

But, I couldn't find them in the newer versions of Fluent (2020 or newer) UDF manual.

Are they still exist and can be used?

I tried to use C_P_M2(c,t) in a UDF, but it encountered a memory error.

Node 2: Process 8324: Received signal SIGSEGV.

================================================== =================================

Any information or suggestion?

seems like its not available for pressure

Any particular reason why they deleted these previous time steps macros just for pressure?
These macros exist for other parameters, e.g. density, temperature, but not for pressure!
