Elmer Discussion Forum

Hi Peter, At first many thanks for your efforts in helping. Unfortunately it does not work if I remove the command line "vtu: Output Directory = File "par", neither if I create the "par" directory by hand. What is very strange is that it works nicely in the 2D Phase_Change m...

Hi, In order to test the possibility of selecting in Paraview the bodies/boundaries (as you explained it Peter) I solved a simple heat transfer "Heating_block" model (temperature_result plot and zipped GUI project here attached). The model works correctly without following commands in the ...

...Oups, I forgot the 2 attached png Files!
They are here attached

Hi Peter again, I just tried what you explained about the GeometryIds for the bodies and the boundaries on your "BlockDomainsVtuParts" Github model. 1/ for the bodies GeometryIds threeshold Min/Max = 2/4 (here attached) it shows nicely the 3 Bodies 2 to 4 (as defined in the sif file) 2/ Fo...

Hi Peter, Yes I will see a little more how SaveScalar works. Say just that, as I told it in the former reply, when solving a multiphysics model (like in our case an electromagnetic processing problem with electromagnetics, heat transfer, moving mesh, fluid mechanics coupled physics), you have often ...

Hi, Thanks a lot Peter for these very interesting explanations. I saw also this in one of the older forum threads and run your Guithub "BlockDomainsVtuParts" example. Now with your current complementary explanations the things are more clear. I will try this and keep you informed. Concerni...

Hi Yes this is probably possible by coding in Paraview but for the moment (as I am not a code programmer.../ perhaps later I will learn the Python code) I would like to do that without additional coding. And as I saw (see just some YouTube videos) that, when analyzing data from an OpenFoam model in ...

Hi, Thank you Kevin for this. But I still wonder if it is possible: 1/ to be able in Paraview to get the physical groups (bodies, but also boundaries) which have been defined in Elmer 2/to be able to export from Elmer to Paraview the material properties, etc... 3/in paraview to calculate and then pl...

Hi Kevin, Thanks for your reply. 1/I knew that there is a flux solver in Elmer. But as all the graphical post processing is done in Paraview and as one could also like to calculate other things than the heat flux, is there more generally a way to do that in Paraview? 2/ Concerning the geometry Id wi...

Hi, After having solved a heat transfer problem with Elmer I would like to know how to calculate the heat flux in Paraview. Thus my questions are: 1/ In Paraview the temperature gradient is given by the Gradient filter. But, as the heat flux neads also the thermal conductivity, how is it possible to...
