Hydro elastic anlysis in ANSYS
Hydro elastic anlysis in ANSYS
(OP)
Hi all
I have a CFD code which I want to couple with ANSYS. This means: I want to tell ANSYS to run the external CFD .exe file, wait for it to finish solving and then read the output file.
How do I tell ANSYS to run the .exe file and only read the output file when the .exe file finishes running?
Thanks in advance.

RE: Hydro elastic anlysis in ANSYS
you may find /SYS and /SYP commands useful to launch your code; then _STATUS, _RETURN, VREAD etc are other good candidates to control execution and read from file to arrays (or tables, etc).
As already discussed about linking ANSYS with Matlab, there is no evidence for the moment that ANSYS will "wait" for the end of execution from your executable, before continueing the macro. Probably yes, but not sure...
