<p>Hello Chirag,<\/p><p>If you have access to ACP, you should have access to the help:<\/p><p><\/p><p> <\/p><p>There are 3 ways to populate lookup tables in ACP. Here is more information from the help:<\/p><p>”<\/p><h4 class=”bridgehead “>Populating Look-Up Tables<\/h4><p>The easiest way is to populate Look-up Tables is with the help of the Edit Entities with Excel<\/a> on Windows. The set-up with exporting and importing a <span class=”filename”>.csv<\/strong><\/span> file is similar and ideal for Linux. Data can also be entered into Look-up Tables using The ACP Python Scripting User Interface<\/a>.<\/p><p>There are three approaches to populating a Look-Up table. This can be done with:<\/p><div class=”itemizedlist”><ul class=”itemizedlist” type=”disc”><li class=”listitem”><p>The Excel Link<\/a><\/p><\/li>\n

<li class=”listitem”><p>Exporting\/Importing <span class=”filename”>.csv<\/strong><\/span> Files<\/a><\/p><\/li>\n

<li class=”listitem”><p>A Python Script<\/a><\/p><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

<p>”<\/p><p>Here is an example of a lookup table in Excel:<\/p><p><\/p><p>You can import the above Excel table in ACP.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>And here is an example script to create a 1D lookup table in ACP:<\/p><\/p>\n

table = db.active_model.create_lookup_table1d(name='LookUpTable1D.1')\ntable.origin=(0.0, 0.0, 0.0)\ntable.direction=(1.0, 0.0, 0.0)\ntable.create_column(name='Value', type='scalar')\ntable.dimensions=['length', 'dimensionless']\ntable.columns['Location'].values = [0., 1., 2., 3.]\ntable.columns['Value'].values = [0., 1., 2., 3.]<br><br>Note that everything you do in the ACP GUI gets recorded as Python script at the bottom. So, you can create  <br>lookup tables manually and then modify the recorded script to do what you want.<br><br><br><br>You can copy this script in a Python script file, for example myACPscript.py and replay it in ACP:<br><br><br><br><\/pre>\n
<p>Give it a try and let me know how it goes.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>Reno.<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-348000","reply","type-reply","status-publish","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
