  Hi!
  
  I am using Ansys Fluid Flow Fluent for simulations and I created two report files, one for the drag force and one for the lift force. I would then like to export that data from the report files into Matlab in order to use them in some calculations. Any tips on how to do that?
  
  Thanks in advance

  Fluent will create various format output files, mostly text based and space delimited. It's usually just a case of reading these into another package (I often use Excel) to plot results.
