UDF to Export Cell Number

m_ridzon · December 12, 2018, 15:31

I have a simple UDF written (DEFINE_EXECUTE_AT_END) to write post-processing data to a text file. In the file, I would like to include the cell number from which the data comes from. Which UDF command/macro will provide the cell number?

Note, I'm using Fluent v182.

Thanks in advance!

you may make your own variable "number" and write it

best regards

I don't understand. The mesh cells are numbered. I want to know those numbers, not apply my own numbering scheme.
