export

class ansys.cfx.core.generated.post_processing.settings_261.export.export(name: str | None = None, parent=None)

Bases: Group

Holds parameters which control the export of data to an external text file.

Attributes

Attribute	Summary
ansys_export_data	The list of data items to export.
ansys_export_locator	The locator to export the data on.
ansys_export_units	Specifies the units to which the exported data should be converted to.
ansys_file_format	Specifies the file format to write the FSI data in. The options are ‘Simulation’, which is used by Simulation, often when running under WB; and ‘ANSYS’ which is used when writing files used by ANSYS Classic.
ansys_fluid_selection	Specifies the fluid from which to obtain Wall Shear data if applicable. If “All Fluids” is selected, then the Wall Shear for all the fluids are summed.
ansys_reference_temperature	Specifies the Reference Temperature to use when the ANSYS Specify Reference Temperature parameter is set to true when exporting Element Convection.
ansys_specify_reference_temperature	Indicates whether the user wishes to specify the Reference Temperature (Tref) when exporting Element Convection.
ansys_supplemental_htc	Supplemental HTC will replace any negative convection coefficient at the nodes where the choice of bulk temperature is not physical.
ansys_timestep_list	Specifies the list of timesteps to export the specified ANSYS export data for.
additional_variable_list	List of variables to be exported to External Data.
bc_profile_type	The type of BC Profile to export.
cfx_timestep_list	Specifies the list of timesteps to export the specified CFX export data for.
csv_type	‘csv_type’ child.
case_name	Internal CFD-Post name for the analyzed problem or the results set to use.
case_summary_format	Sets the Export format for the Case Summary export.
case_summary_type	Sets the export type for the Case Summary export.
export_chart_name	Sets the name of the chart to export the data for. This parameter will be used if the >export command is sent with ‘chart’ as a parameter.
export_connectivity	Boolean indicating whether or not to export the locator connectivity along with the geometry. This will only be allowed if the geometry is also exported.
export_coord_frame	The Coordinate Frame relative to which all data will be exported.
export_file	The filename to which the exported data will be written.
export_geometry	Boolean indicating whether or not the locator geometry (i.e. X, Y & Z) should be exported.
export_geometry_location	A comma delimited list of locator names.
export_location_aliases	Allows the user to specify a list of names which will be assigned to each respective locator as the data is exported. If insufficient names are given, or if this parameter is blank, the locator name will be used for each locator that has no alias.
export_node_numbers	Boolean indicating whether to export the node number along with the geometry.
export_null_data	Indicates whether to export points at which a variable is not defined.
export_type	Sets the rotation of the image on the printed page.
export_units_system	Sets the Units System to convert all exported data to. By default the value is ‘Preferred’ which will use the users currently selected Preferred Units setting.
export_variable_type	Specifies what variable data to export. If ‘Current’ is selected, the varType for each variable is used. If Hybrid or Conservative is selected, then all variable have their Hybrid or Conservative values exported.
external_export_data	The list of data items to export to External Data format.
heat_flow_sign_flipping	…
include_file_information	Indicates whether to include file information including file name version of Post, and date of export.
include_header	Indicates whether to include header information in the exported file, or just output the data.
location	A locator name.
location_list	A comma delimited list of locator names.
null_token	The string that should be used in the export file if no data exists for a variable at a node.
overwrite	Indicates whether, if the specified filename exists, the file should be overwritten with the new data.
precision	Indicates the number of decimal points of precision to display the exported data to.
separator	Indicates the string to use between each variable. The string must be delimited by quotation marks.
spatial_variables	The list of Spatial variables to export.
split_cut_lines	Indicates whether to split cut lines along connectivity boundaries, or just leave all points connected.
variable_list	A comma delimited list of variables whose data is to be exported.
vector_brackets	Indicates the kind of brackets to use around vector data when displayed as components. Any two character combination is valid, where the first character will be used as the open-bracket, and the second as the close-bracket. If “-” is specified (no quotes), no brackets will be displayed.
vector_display	Indicates the way that vector variables are to be displayed. Choices are: Components | Scalar.
