How can I visualise in CFX-Post a phase pair variable like the slip velocity, the particle slip Reynolds number, etc..?

A lot of these variables are known to the solver during the run and are simply not stored in the res file. To make those available for postprocessing you can: 1. take a look at the VARIABLES file included in your CFX-5 installation in the directory such as 'CFX-10.0'/etc This file contains variable definitions such as: VARIABLE: slip Option = Definition #Scope = Phase Pair MMS Name = SLIP Long Name = Slip Velocity Magnitude Tensor Type = SCALAR Quantity = Velocity User Level = 3 Status = D Output to Jobfile = No Output to Postprocessor = No Component Bounds Flag = Yes Component Lower Bounds = 0 Bounds Violation Action = Stop Variable Scope = PHASE #PAIR END 2. extract the ccl of your run, using cfx5cmds -def file.def -text file.ccl -read edit the newly created file file.ccl, and in the LIBRARY section of the file, add the variable definition: LIBRARY: ..... VARIABLE: slip Option = Definition #Scope = Phase Pair MMS Name = SLIP Long Name = Slip Velocity Magnitude Tensor Type = SCALAR Quantity = Velocity User Level = 3 Status = DOutput to Jobfile = No Output to Postprocessor = Yes Component Bounds Flag = Yes Component Lower Bounds = 0 Bounds Violation Action = Stop Variable Scope = PHASE #PAIR END ..... END changing the 'Output to Postprocessor' from No to Yes. Put the ccl back into the def file with cfx5cmds -def file.def -text file.ccl -write Running with this modification will ensure that the slip velocity will then be included in your res file. |
