We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Can ray tracing files be reused in CFX?

      There is currently no way to re-use ray trace files in CFX. By default, the ray trace file is created in the run directory and deleted after the run completes. For a parallel run, a separate ray trace file will be written for each partition. When using the Monte Carlo or Discrete Transfer radiation models, the output files discussed in section 3.2.16. CFX Radiation File can be obtained by setting the Diagnostic Output Level to 1 or 2 under Solver Control > Advanced Options > Thermal Radiation Control (see 10.8.5.2. Diagnostic Output Level in the CFX Modeling Guide).
