Hello All,
I have set of files from Ansys Fluent simulation for 3 simulation times in the following format.

AAA_1.0.encas
AAA_1.0.vel
AAA_1.0.scl1
AAA_1.0.scl2
AAA_1.0.scl3

AAA_2.0.encas
AAA_2.0.vel
AAA_2.0.scl1
AAA_2.0.scl2
AAA_2.0.scl3

AAA_3.0.encas
AAA_3.0.vel
AAA_3.0.scl1
AAA_3.0.scl2
AAA_3.0.scl3

I tried opening them Ensight Gold. Later on, i found that these are nothing individual steady state files. How to generate single case file from Fluent which includes all time steps from Fluent simulation.

Hi Vivek,

 

You can make use the Multiple Case File option explained in the following user manual page to know how to read multiple encase files.

10.18. Multiple Case File Format (ansys.com).

 

If not, you can write a  .cas file and .dat files for each time step from Fluent. You can also write data file in .cdat format for the required timesteps from Fluent. Please see the screenshot below to know how to write *.cdat file.

While importing files in EnSight, use “Advanced Interface” option to read all the data file into a single poroject.

 

Please refer to the following manual for more information:Basic Operation (ansys.com)
