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.

Dear Rob,

Thank you so much for your kind reply.

1- When i build the UDF in compiled UDFs, the console has reported

{ scons: warning: No version of Visual Studio compiler found - C/C++ compilers most likely not set correctly. File "F:\05 DPM model\libudf\win64\3ddp_host\SConstruct", line 20, in . 

scons: warning: No version of Visual Studio compiler found - C/C++ compilers most likely not set correctly. File "F:\05 DPM model\libudf\win64\3ddp_node\SConstruct", line 20, in . Compiler path: xxx. Linker path: xxx.

scons: *** [libudf.dll] Error 1} 

2- When i load the library, the console has reported

{ERROR: The UDF library you are trying to load (libudf) is not compiled for parallel use on the current platform (win64). ���������������������

F:\\05 DPM model\\libudf\\win64\\3ddp_node\\libudf.dll. Error: An error occurred in the previous operation. The details can be found in the text output.

Error Object: #f }

3-  Your suggestion to use the current version of the manual is very helpful. However, as I am new to UDF in Fluent, I need to spend more time solving the problem and reporting the drag/lift forces on particles in DPM. 

Thanks
