Introduction
Ensight is 3D Computational Fluid Dynamics result viewing software. This page contains a brief introduction to the software. A number of MapInfo tasks which are repeatedly used in viewing TUFLOW results are described below. If you have any suggestions to be included in these pages, please add them to the discussion page: Ensight Suggestions
Viewing Results
Data Preprocessing
Ensight requires an input file format which is different to the standard TUFLOW output types. RES_to_RES.exe is used to convert TUFLOW xmdf results into an Ensight compatible form. Directions how to do this are outlined here: RES_to_RES.exe
The utility will create the following three ensight file types:
- Ensight case file;
- Ensight geometry file;
- Ensight results files. A unique file is created for each result output variable and time step.
Loading Data
Open the case file (*.case) in Ensight.
