Average temp of volume in CFD Postprocess

Hi, avb

I'm not familiar with CFD simulation, but I think the operation is the same .

First, open the result file and plot the contour type (temperature) you want

Second, open query panel and select the element required, turn on all the query fileds, query the elements' temperature and export the query result to a csv file. Then calculate the average temperature you want.

Just like the picture below

Thanks Nagahashi for your reply. This method is useful but my model is very big and when I try to select all the nodes, hyperview crashes.

I was looking for some other method.

But thanks again this is useful for small number of nodes

Hi, avb

May I know the approximate number of nodes you are querying?

The folloeing commands may help you, it deals with about two million nodes in one minute.

set t 1
hwi OpenStack
hwi GetSessionHandle sess$t
sess$t GetProjectHandle prj$t
prj$t GetPageHandle pg$t [prj$t GetActivePage]
pg$t GetWindowHandle win$t [pg$t GetActiveWindow]
win$t GetClientHandle cln$t
cln$t GetModelHandle mdl$t [cln$t GetActiveModel]
set setid [ mdl$t AddSelectionSet node ]
mdl$t GetSelectionSetHandle node$t $setid
node$t Add "displayed"
mdl$t GetQueryCtrlHandle qry$t
qry$t SetQuery "node.id,contour.value"
qry$t SetSelectionSet $setid
qry$t WriteData result1.csv
mdl$t RemoveSelectionSet $setid
hwi CloseStack

The newly generated file "result1.csv" is saved in the current working directory(for example :C:\Users\sakihama\Documents\result1.csv)

Thanks a lot. This method works!!
