UDF macros FULL list not available

the_sixth_hokage · April 25, 2020, 03:56

Hi..

Does anyone have a full list of UDF macros...the UDF manuals doesn't seem to have the entire list..

I need to access molecular weight, critical volume, critical temperature, critical pressure, acentric factor, dipole moment etc...is there any property macros for this..

That list would be pretty long, hence, not documented. However, all of this is available in header files under ansys_inc/vXXX/fluent/fluentXX.Y.Z/src

Properties are accessible via Material and Property and generic_property function. Look at the Example 2 at

Is it necessary to install Microsoft Visual Studio to use these macros??! Will there be any debugging errors??

On Windows, MS VS is the only supported compiler. Some of these can work with the inbuilt Interpreter, however, the Interpreter cannot handle structures and references. So, if you want to use Materials, Properties, etc., you will have to install MS VS or MS Build Tools. Both are available freely from MS.
