ReadCFX

ReadCFX reads CFX-5 data format.

ReadCFX is available since COVISE release 5.2.3. Currently it is supported on Linux and sgi32 only.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
result	Browser	The CFX5 result file location.
domains	Choice	The domain which will be read. If ALL is selected then all domains will be read.
regions	Choice	The region which will be available at the last 2 output ports.
scalar_data	Choice	The scalar data which will be displayed on the domains and region.
vector_data	Choice	The vector data of the selected domain and region.
timesteps	Scalar	Number of timesteps

Note on timesteps:

ReadCFX looks for numbers as part of filenames and thus determines the number of timesteps. You can limit the number of timesteps by using the 'timesteps' parameter.

Output Ports

Name	Type	Description
outputmesh	UnstructuredGrid UnstructuredGrid	The geometry as an unstructured grid.
outputscalar data	Float	The scalar data as selected at scalar_data parameter.
outputvector data	Vec3	The vector data as selected at vector_data parameter.
outputregion mesh	Polygons	The geometry of the selected region at regions parameter.
outputregion scalar data	Float	The data of the selected region.
