Data for Creating a Dynamic Factory API Model from Existing Simulation

Hello,

I am attempting to create a dynamic factory API model out of a particle stream in an existing model, and I need to capture the data to give it. As particles cross a position threshold in the existing model, I would like to capture and store data including the time, position, velocity, particle type and size, etc. Then if I can export the data into a text file, I can read it into the factory API.

Does anyone have any recommendations on going about capturing and storing the data? Saving .h5 files at each time step is almost certainly out of the question. I have begun looking at the Residence Time in Geometry particle body force API model for inspiration, but haven't gone very deep yet.

All thoughts and recommendations are appreciated. Please let me know if I can clarify anything.
