<div>Hi Mostapha, </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Theoretically, it is possible to export a txt file with whole bunch of information generated by a CFD simulation. Actually some commercial CFD program, such as CFX and CFX-post, may fulfil your requirements. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Microflo in VE is only a simplified CFD module which targets on simple yet straightforward building CFD analysis. With its visual outputs and bunch of interested monitor points(quantitative data), I can generate pretty decent report for the customers in the construction industry. We are not doing research and seeking very <font color="#231f20" size="2" face="GillSansMT"><font color="#231f20" size="2" face="GillSansMT"><font color="#231f20" size="2" face="GillSansMT">in-depth analysis of the fluid mechanics (you will not use Microflo if you are). From this point of view, I can't see any improvement in Mircroflo in the near future. Liam, as the expert in this area, please correct me if I've made the wrong judgement. </font></font></font></div>

<p><span>Dear Mostapha,</span></p></div>
<div>
<p><span>There is no way at present to output the CFD results over the whole CFD mesh to a text file. But you can get Microflo to dump the results out to text file at a certain number of monitoring points.<br><br>Before you start a Microflo simulation, when you are in the residual monitoring page, there is a section of the window that allows you to add monitoring points.<br>
<br>When you do this the CFD results at these montoring points are dumped to text files in the veprojectdir\CFD\cell subdirectory. One file is produced for each montoring point. The first 4 variables dumped are x-velocity, y-velocity, z-velocity, and temperature.<br>
<br>Regards, </span></p>
