Exporting an ensight case gold file from fluent works well. However, with large simulation, the export process adds many hours onto the simulation time. I found that ticking the ?EnSight Parallel? option in the fluent export window speeds up the process considerably.nHowever, I cant find a way to load the files into EnSight (2020.r2) without fatal errors. Fluent creates a subdirectory with as many .encas files as there are cpu cores. (cnode_0.encas , cnode_1.encas etc)nIf I load the set of encas files by specifying ?cnode_*.encas? as the filename, I get the following error:-nError ERROR: Error> {s1:1} readensight_file_descrip() in geom.c:1215nof EnSight Server 2020 R2:nError ERROR: ensight error; type=Error no= 3 (00000003)nError ERROR: Reading geom file description linenError ERROR:nError reading data.nError from dr_do_read2().nIf I use the ?multiple file interface? button and add to list ?cnode_*.encas?. I get the same error.nAs I am trying to perform a task that practically everyone else needs to do, I can only imagine there is some step I don?t know about. Should this method work ? Perhaps ?ensight parallel? is not supported with moving meshes ?nAny advice would be appreciated.n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-50848","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-fluid-dynamics"],"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
