How to find the coordinate value for OF output results? (for matlab post-processing)
 
Hi all,

I want to do postprocessing using Matlab. I found that the OF output results for every steps is just the cell value, no cell location or any other information, so it is very hard to read the OF output into matlab (I have several blocks). I check the constat/polyMesh/points and I can only found the points x,y,z value, not the cell x,y,z. So my question is: how can I find the corresponding x,y,z for each cell value in the OF output results?

Thanks in advance!

Regards,

well, it save cell center data, if you want to know cell center position for post processing then use
