Hello,
Is it possible to write out the data at every time step of the simulation in SP files?
Thanks,
Mohsen
I think if you set the write interval (spx_dt) to a value smaller than the minimum time step (dt_min), that should do it. I don’t recommend doing this though for a long simulation, as the SPx files will get very large and may not be usable (Paraview won’t be able to read them).
Thanks Jeff,
I will try it. I will extract the data using the postmfix.

Hi Jeff,
In order to write the data in each time step, I fixed the time step size and set the spx_dt for velocity a value smaller than the time step size. However, the simulation ends after a while without printing out any error. The end of the log file is:

Do you have any idea what causes the simulation to end after a couple of seconds?(FYI, I am using 2013 version of he code for this simulation.)
Thanks,
