How to export the node coordinates for a Fluent mesh?

      Hello,


       


      I need to extract the node coordinates for all nodes on a 2D Named Selection edge.  How can I accomplish this.  I am using Workbench with a Fluent Module.


       


      Thanks

      You can do that by exporting coordinates of the boundaries into ASCII format in Fluent or any other format.

      Hello,


       


      Thank you, but how to do this?  If I right click on a boundary that is a named selection, for instance, there is no export option.  So what are the steps to do it?

      Hello,


      Load the mesh in FLuent. Go to File -> Export -> Solution Data and use the following settings as shown in the dialog box.



      Best Regards,

      Hello Everyone,

      I made surface along my local coordinate at my 3d model in ANSYS workbench 2022 R1. I want to export normal stress data in my local coordinate. when i export normal stress data, it will obtain along global coordinate. But I want normal stress exported data in local x, y and z coordinates not along global coordinate.

      Which solver are you using?
