PyFluent postproc - assign report value to a float variable
 

Hi All,

I'm new to Ansys PyFluent and I'd like to have an surface-average temperature report value assigned to a numerical (float) variable in PyFluent.
Doing this TUI command within Fluent Console:
/report/surface-integrals/mass-weighted-avg/ycut_1 temperature no
Gave the following output:
Mass-Weighted Average Static Temperature [K]
-------------------------------- --------------------
ycut_1 345.40113



When I run the PyFluent-equivalent command of the above code in Jupyter Notebook, some strange 'False' boolean is given as output:
Commands:
t_bulk = solver.results.report.surface_integrals(report_typ e = "area-weighted-avg", surface_id = ["ycut_1"], cell_report = "temperature", write_to_file = False)
print(t_bulk)

Result:

Area-Weighted Average
Static Temperature [K]
-------------------------------- --------------------
ycut_1 342.32108
False


Assigning this command to a variable results in a 'bool' type variable but this is weird as it seems a string to me:
Command:
type(t_bulk)

Output:

bool


My question is: do you know any trick on how to get just the numerical value of this report (in above example, 342.32108)?


Many thanks in advance.

I have encountered similar issues, but what I want to store the text, and I use: message_ Session. tui. mesh. manage. list(),the i get all the information about the mesh of all fluid. I want to save it as a string type into a variable, but I failed. I am unable to save some values and text in pyfluent. Have you made any progress on this issue recently? Can you help me?

Same question
 

Has anyone figured this out already? I'm finding the same issue
