vtk output - velocity vector is missing

Post by mulvrova »

Hello,

recently, I updated to the last version of elmer (Rev: 5097) and since I am encountering some difficulties with vtk output. By default, all degrees of freedom should be saved. However, there is velocity missing in the output (using Navier-Stokes solver). Before ( in revision 4??? ), there was no problem with that. Do you have any idea what could have been changed ? Thank you for any suggestions.

the solver saving vtk files:

Code: Select all

! output for paraview
! ---------------------
Solver 5
  Equation = String "ResultOutput"
  Procedure = File "ResultOutputSolve" "ResultOutputSolver"
  Vtk Format = Logical True
End
BR, Martina.

Hi Martina

Ok, thanx for reporting. I think I know what has happened. Before a correction is available have you tried vtu output format. Now with the binary and single precision formats available it gives much more compact files. So in Solver section set

Code: Select all

Vtu Format = Logical True
Binary Output = Logical True
Single Precision = Logical True
