DPM animation with an steady flow .dat
 
Dear all,

First of all thank you in advance for your attention. I am a Bachelor's student and for my final degree thesis I'm working in FLUENT. Despite my short experience with this software I could solve all my quesions taking a look on previous post as well as n bibliography but the thing is that I am quite stuck with the following problem...

I have run a simulation of an steady flow cas and now I want to simulate how particle released from a given point move among the domain, just to be able to save pictures (or frame or whatever) and make an animation. I saw on the internet that one solution might be to run in unsteady mode the cas (without solving transport/mass and the other equations) and create a macro which, for each time step, plot the particles among the domain and saves the plot.

Due to my lack of experience, despite of trying very hard, I could not succed with it so I would lik to know if any of you have tried this before, if so, what have you done and if you could explain me a little bit in detail the process.

Thank you very much in advance, any kind of help is wrmly welcome!
Regards,
Guille.
