      Hello!!
      I am Working on Pulsating Pressure flow in a pipe. In that regard in CFD POST I want to take a plot between Pressure Vs Time at a particular plane. I am not able to do this, because in the XY Transient/sequence section, locations tab, created locations are not visible..... as I am new to Ansys fluent can anyone help me out in this....
      I have attached the images also. please have a look at those....Thank You.

      The pictures are 1.what I have got and


      2.what I have to get respectively.

      It is not necessary for me to plot the graph in a particular section. I am okay, if it is possible to plot the curve at a particular point also. my pressure value at a particular point is varying with time, so I am in the requirement of plotting a curve as shown in the following picture,

      I also want to get a plot like this sir..! is this possible in CFD Post? If so can you please explain the steps, as I am a beginner sir. Thank You

      I think you have read only one time step file in CFD-Post or you might have stead state case. 


      First you need to do transient simulation in Fluent. 


      Then you need to save intermediate files using autosave. 


      You can also export cfd-post files for particular time steps. Then read latest file in cfd-post which will read history as well provided all saved files in the same folder. Then you can use transient options in CFD-Post.

      Thank You very much for your quick reply sir.


       


      Where I can find the option "AUTO SAVE"? Can you please help me out in this!!


       


      Thank you.

      it is under solution. 


      best way is to export cdat files and then read cdat file in cfd-post.
