Hello,

it's been quite a long time since I worked with OF... but now I'm back! And I am dealing with an unsteady simulation for which I would like to export, at each time step, pressure and velocity data in Ensight format. I have to mention that the mesh is quite big, and that this represents a large amount of data to be stored.

Of course one solution is to save OF data at each time step, and then reconstruct data coming from the different proc, convert it to Ensight format, remove the OF data and keep only the pressure and velocity Ensight files. This means a lot of manual operations. Furthermore, I cannot afford, even temporarily, to store too much data (many fields stored by OF are not useful to my post-processing).

Does someone have an idea to help me? I had a look at the work done with pyFoam, could it be useful?

Thank you all for your suggestions!
