Reply To: Running Ansys Fluent from commands

[Rob]

There's a section in the User's Guide covering launching & loading a journal. I'd tend to favour setting time step size etc in the case and where possible initialising the model. That simplifies the run journal to:

/file/rcd myfile

iterate command - check in the Fluent TUI for the exact syntax   it'll probably be /solve/iterate something

/file/wcd myfile_%t

/exit

 

 

Note the first / ensures the command is always launched from the top menu. %t appends the file with the time step. 

That will run Fluent in stand alone mode, and no need to use Workbench at any point in the process.
