Hi

I want to save some contours and line plots for a Fluent simulation while it is running via TUI on the HPC. How to do that? and will Fluent save the contours at every iteration or after reaching convergence? How to control that also?

thanks

Hello,

Yes, you can use Execute commands or Scene or Animations in Run Calculations. Please refer the Ansys guide for more information on using appropriate TUI commands.

Hi, thanks. My question is if i export the data along a line using TUI, will Fluent export the data every iteration or after the solution has converged?

Execute command will let you choose if you want to execute it repeatedly or at the end of the simulation.

Yea thanks but if i do it with TUI in the journal file, then can i adjust the frequency of writing dat files?

[abhishek.roy]

here is the tui command

/solve/execute-commands/add-edit command-1 no 4 iteration "" 
/file/write-data "D:/My_test_Case/circular_pipe/circular_pipe.dat.h5" 

here 4 is the frequency. you can adjust according to your requirement. Refer to the user guide for list of TUI command

Yes, you can adjust the frequency. Refer the Ansys guide for more information.

So upon using these commands it will create a new dat file for plot on the line every nth iteration ? 

[scabo]

And where can i find a detailed TUI guide? in the internet it seems theres is a short one

You need to login the Ansys website with your credentials to access the guide.

Is it the same credentials that i use to login here? Can you please send me a link of the website?

I can find this online. Is it sufficient?-https://www.afs.enea.it/project/neptunius/docs/fluent/html/ug/node48.htm
