Hello everyone

Does anybody know where I can find the file of the results of the monitored cells ? I thought it was in the directory called "cfd" of my project (and then in the directory "cell") but what I get are .text files that has not the same name, nor the same coordonates, as my monitored cells...

How does it work ?

Thanks for helping

Yes the monitoring point data is saved into the directory

project_dir\CFD\cell

Each monitoring point gets its own file. The x, y and z location of the monitoring point is used in the filename. But there is no header in the files to help tell you the location. Sometimes the filenames make it obvious which monitoring point they are from but unfortunately sometimes it is very confusing.

There is a work-around though. By adding each monitoring point during a different stage of the simulation will mean each file will look different when opened. E.g. you can start off the simulation with one monitoring point, then stop it at 10 iterations to add a second monitoring point, before resuming the simulation. Then the file for the second monitoring point will have no values for the first 10 lines of the file.
