Q. I want to interpolate results from one simulation to a new simulation. The problems have the same geometry but a different number of domains. CFX does not seem to want to allow this interpolation. Is there any way to accomplish this interpolation?

A. Yes, it is possible, using profiles. From the first analysis, in CFX-Post, export with BC Profile format, a custom set of result, say u, v, w, p, t, k, e.
The export will be on a domain basis. If there were three domains, for example, the exported file will have three different header sections. You then delete the second and third sets of header lines so that it looks like the file is for a single domain.

Once it is initialized in PRE, (we're in the second case now) you will see the function name in the Library section. Use that in the t=0 Global initialization tab as an expression. i.e. Static.Velocity u(x,y,z) for initializing the U velocity. "Static" is replaced by whatever you see under functions in the library after Profile initialization.
