Reply To: Fluent – Runtime DFT with unsteady boundary condition

[Joe]

Hi, Thanks for your message. 

After each time step, I define a profile at the pressure outlet. In my journal file, this reads as 

"file/read-profile "location/*.prof"
 /define/boundary-conditions pressure-outlet outlet_boundary yes yes no pressure p no 284 no yes no no yes no 10 yes yes no no no

 solve/dual-time-iterate 1 10
 define/profiles/delete-all".

I repeat these steps for the length of my simulation. The *.prof file is set up as specified in the example in the user guide. 

I have also tried running the simulation for many time steps (longer than specified in the DFT setup menu) but still do not get data out of the Runtime DFT. 

Thanks in advance,

Joe
