using paraview for postprocessing DEM+PFV

Asked by azim

Dear all,

I'm simulating a model with DEM+PFV. I saved the data using VTKRecorder (recorders=['all']) in my engines. I want to watch flow through particles like [1]. I mean flow and particles together.
I will be grateful if someone can help me.

Hello,

Use saveVTK[1] to collect the FlowEngine pressures and VTKRecorder[2] to collect DEM sphere positions.

Cheers,

Robert

Dear Robert,
 I think, I know how to work with them separately. But:
I want to watch the interaction between flow and particles together, as the movie I directed.
I imported both of [1,2] together in Paraview, but it shows them with a commutative time(time=t[1]+t[2]).(wrong!)
 how can they work together simultaneously?

cheers,
Azim

Import them one at a time into your paraview workspace.
