How to time-average results of a clipping plane?

Hi all,

i want to export the vector representation of a slice in my simulation domain. Also i want to time-average these results. Is that possible?

 

Thanks!

    Hi Clemens, 

     

    For exporting the vector representation what format of export were you looking for (image or exporting of the data)?

    For the time-averaged results you can export the data, not directly from a slice but you can create a bin group the same width as the slice and in the Analyst data export dialogue choose the bin as your query and export from this.  You can export from a single time-step or average over multiple ones.

    We have some e-learning materials specifically on the analyst bins in the EDEM Analyst: Key Functionality videos here https://learn.altair.com/enrol/index.php?id=147

    Cheers Stephen!

    Will look into that.

    Hi Stephen,

     

    actually what i want to do is average the vector representation of my particles over multiple timesteps and export this as an image. Is that possible?

     

    Thanks!

    Hi Clemens,

     

    Not as standard, it would theoretically be possible to track the average vector over time using EDEMpy and then display the representation in Python however I haven't seen a similar example of this unfortunatly.
