CFDEM not copy and combine results into time step folders after finish running

Submitted by NTT1508 on Thu, 11/03/2016 - 02:45

Hi Josef and Alice

I got a simple problem when CFDEM finishes running but the results stored in individual processor folders in CFD are not automatically copied and combined into time step folders. This rarely happens. Normally after running, CFD results from different processors will be copied into different time steps, so that I can use foamToVTK to convert to VTK files with respect to write _time_step. I did not change anything in the parCFDEM file, all paths and commands are the same.

Can you give me some hints, please ?

Thank you,

Regards,

Hello NTT1508,
generally the command for getting the CFD data copied to time folders is reconstructPar. However, we don't really use that as paraview is able to display the cases without reconstructing the processor data. Just select the "Decomposed Case" option when loading the data.
Hope this helps,
Alice
