disply results in fluent

how I do to disply my results with diference time (eg:t=0s,t=1s...) in fluent simulator for unsteay flow.

you can use tecplot to disply results with diference time

Tecplot is an option. It depends on what you want to do; basically there are 2 tracks you can take.

- Store a datafile every timestep (or every N timesteps). This stores in essence all parameters, although you can select which quantities should and should not be stored in a datafile. It's a data-intensive method in that. Datafiles can be opened in CFD-post, which also allows transient processing. Check the cornell tutorials on unsteady flow for more information.

Or:

- Under calculation activities, export solution data every N timesteps. Select the file format of choice, depending on which software you plan to use. If not sure, you can select ASCII (text files). These are quite data-intensive compared to binary formats, however. In the right column, check the parameters you want to track. Advantage is that you only store what you need (so make sure you know what you need). Also decide on whether you need cell or node data. You can analyse the data in your package of choice - tecplot is a good one for plotting, MATLAB or so may be more suitable if you want to do a lot of data manipulation (or python, if you are proficient in that)
