Dear organisation,

Is there an option to get numerical results after doing an internal CFD study?
The airflows for example a room are given in the form of a color map and a ledgend. For indication this is ok. Though in order to obtain averaged values in a room, or weighted averages, numerical data is needed.

How can i obtain that data?

Or would the only way for now to save the jpg and use a gradient colormap converter to put numbers at the colors and its area. Will be a lot of effort.

Hope you can advise/help me on this, would be really helpfull.

K.R Angelo

You can export the data for each slice currently being displayed using the "File > Export > Export CFD result slice" Menu command. The CSV file exported can be read into Excel for analysis - averages, min/max etc
