Export flux results to flux for convergence study

joetab123

I have Flux 2022.3. I would like to run a convergence study on the 2D FEM results by comparing between simulations with different average element sizes, in order to estimate the error. I want to compute the L2 Norm between solutions so something like \sqrt( \int_{domain} (An1-An2)^2 dxdy ), where An1 and An2 are two solutions.

Can I export the solution from one flux simulation into another flux simulation so that the solution variable is available for computations? Do I need to sample the solutions on a common 2D grid and then post process in MATLAB?

Hi,

From Flux there is a possibility to export the results as txt, csv, xml and python. Once the results are exported, you can import it for another project and your comparison in the project Flux. For the import, for example case a curve:

• Post processing >> curve >> 2D curve: right click and select import 2D curve (in this case it will be text file).

Thanks
