We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Thanks for your reply,

to specify my question a bit, after a simulation run Fluent will save some simulation parameters on a per cell basis (eg a pressure value at every node) to a .dat.h5 file. This can be opened in a post instace, where contours, isosurfaces etc can be created. I can export a data file from fluent where I can choose which quantities will be included (file -> export -> solution data...), but since Fluent automatically saves a .dat.h5 file after a succesful simulation (with a limited set of included quantities) I was wondering wether I could stop manually exporting a data file by changing fluents defaults.

Afaik, report definitions are global parameters, which are not computed on a per cell basis (or am I wrong?)Â
