I have an unsteady flow with one single injection that produces only 1 particle.
I want to know its position at every fluid time step.
is there a udf that can loop over all particles (or two separate udf's, one for looping over all injection threads, and the other over all particles in each injection thread)?
thanks

hi,
DEFINE_DPM_SCALAR_UPDATE(track_dpm_particles,c,t,i nitialize,p)
{
if (RP_Get_Boolean("dpm/unsteady-tracking?"))
{
float time = RP_Get_Real("flow-time");
float x = p->state.pos[0];
float y = p->state.pos[1];
float u = p->state.V[0];
float v = p->state.V[1];
#if RP_3D
float z = p->state.pos[2];
float w = p->state.V[2];
#endif
FILE *fd;
int id = p->part_id;
char whoru[80];
sprintf(whoru,"dpm_positions%f.out",time);
fd = fopen(whoru, "a");
#if RP_3D
fprintf(fd, "%i %f %e %e %e %e %e %e %e %e %e \n", id, time, x, y, z, u, v, w, P_T(p), P_MASS(p), P_RHO(p));
#else
fprintf(fd, "%i %f %e %e %e %e %e %e %e \n", id, time, x, y, u, v, P_T(p), P_MASS(p), P_RHO(p));
#endif
fclose(fd);
}
