Time Interval for writing Log_File

Submitted by NTT1508 on Wed, 07/06/2016 - 07:03

Hi CFDEM members,

The log_file created after running a case is sometimes really large in size (e.g., 19Gb in my case), this might cause a problem to the memory capacity of computer. My question is how to manage this log_file effectively. Is there any possibility to change this file, for example, control the interval time to write log_file ? (e.g., write in every 50 time steps).

Thank you,

Regards,

Hello NTT1508,

there is no such feature at the moment (it also kind of contradicts the sense of a log).
(typically simulation data is much more heavy weight)

Let me know if you find a feasible solution.

Best regards,
Christoph
