I would like to be able to extract the velocity / pressure / coordinate data from the profile I am analyzing in Altair Extrude Metals 2020. 

Is there somewhere in the run folder where this data is stored and can be extracted from?

 

Thanks!

    The h3d file has this information.  You can access it via HyperView or you can condense the file to just what you need with "hvtrans" or "hgtrans" for HyperView or Hypergraph respectively.

    Further details can be found in the help files. 

     

    Have a great day,

    There is one more approach if you need ASCII export directly from the solver,

    Define the following line at the top of *.HX file. This will make the solver write a new file <Model Name>-Results.txt with field results in ASCII format. 

    set ::env(HX_WriteResults) 1
