You can right-click the quantity you're plotting (from the tree) and select Export to save a .xml file. This is a text file from which you can pull the values you want. Otherwise you can use the acuTrans program. Let's say you have a surface called Inlet:
acuTrans -osi -osiv step,time -to table -osis Inlet
will create a file that has columns for step and time. See the acuTrans chapter of the Programs Reference Manual for more details. It looks like step and time are not available via acuOut, but they probably should be added there.
thank you ! .xml file is what i was looking for.
i have been investigating acutrans option. i just find a .exe file, when a execute it i get this (photo). what should i do ?
Could you post a screenshot of the compete window, including the way this command is executed?
Also are you executing it in the folder with result files? e.g. .Log, ACUSIM.DIR, Acusim.cnf, .inp, etc?
You need to make sure to use the AcuSolve Command Prompt (either the desktop icon or through the Start menu into the Altair HyperWorks 2017 menu list). Then use 'cd' to get into your problem directory. If you started the job from AcuConsole (or possibly from HyperMesh) you should have the Acusim.cnf file in that directory. This is a text file which you can view - and you should see the name of your problem there - like problem = test_job (test_job would be your actual problem name). If that Acusim.cnf file is not there, you can create one yourself with the the problem name, or just add the problem name to your acuTrans command. If we base this off the example from above:
acuTrans -pb test_job -osi -osiv step,time -to table -osis Inlet
