Export and Data Check

Before exporting a model, the setup can be verified and checked for errors using the Data Check tool.

Verify the model using Data Check

  1. Access Data Check from the Solution Browser.
  2. Right-click the Solution Name and select Data Check.
SimLab will submit the input files to nFX[p] and show the output log in the Output Window. This will report the status of the model and highlight any issues found in the setup.
Attention: The Data Check tool requires the Output Window to be enabled via View > Output Window.
Figure 1.


For more information on nFX[p], refer to nanoFluidX Prep.

Export Configuration and Particle Files

  1. To Export the model, right-click the Solution Name in the Solution Browser and select Export Solver Input File, similar to as shown in Figure 1.
  2. Choose to export only the configuration files (*.cfg) or both the particle (*.prtl) and configuration files.
Note: STL walls, Stencil Files for Inlet regions and Probes, and Time History files are considered part of the Configuration file and are exported together.
Important: Only the SPH bodies selected in the Solution will be exported. This can be verified by double-clicking the Solution Name and viewing the bodies in the Solution menu.
