Hi All,
After completing a OpenFOAM simulation, when I am doing reconstructPar for large data sets, it is taking a lot of time. Is there a faster way t reconstruct my data? I am using interFOAM. Thanks. |

- Open Paraview and select the .foam file of your case. - Change the Case Type to Decomposed Case. I hope this helps.

Yes thanks. But animation in decomposed case runs very slowly and if I want to transfer all of the data from HPC to local then I need foamToVTK for which I need to reconstructPar anyways. |

Means can i foamToVTK parallely without doing reconstructPar? so that it will do foamTOVTK for each processor and write the entire thing in the main directory??
Thanks. |

Yes you can use foamToVTK or foamToEnsight in parallel to convert your data from your parallel case to VTK or Ensight format without reconstructing the case. You can open both format in ParaView. Regards, Yann |

Go for foamToEnsight in parallel. It will produce a single EnSight directory at the root of your case.

This sounds very wrong - there is no reason that foamToVTK in parallel should produce VTK files in each processor directory. Additionally, the processor boundaries should be suppressed, unless you have explicitly requested -processor-fields. On the other hand, you have not stated anywhere which version of OpenFOAM you are using, so any concrete statement is not actually possible. |
