AoA and Mach sweep macro

kont87 · February 7, 2019, 14:40

Hey,
I am new to star ccm+. I am experienced in fluent. It seems defining a parameter and solve the problem for varying parameters, lets say aoa and/or mach number, is easier in starccm+ by writing just one script, instead of combination of several journal files in fluent.
Anyway, I looked over tutorials but could not see a similar one.
What I need is, some coefficients are (cl or cd) to be written to separate .txt files at the end of each simulation. I created a macro for a single computation, how can I loop through for all simulation points?

Regards.

1) You can use the DesignManager for this purpose.

or

2) use an outer macro to call the different cases and some inner macros for the change of the parameters and the postprocessing.

or

3) just stay in your simulation and do a loop over all your parameters. Then only one macro is required.
