SubscriberHello everyone I am simulating liquid (phase-2) fill-up in an empty tank (filled with air, phase-1) using an Eulerian-Multiphase, transient setup.
My cell conditions are defined as: volume fraction of phase-2 = 0 (i.e. empty tank)
My inlet conditions (velocity-inlet) as: volume fraction of phase-2 = 1 (filling with water)
When I initialize using the standard mode from the inlet, the volume fraction for phase-2 is computed by default to zero. I can change it in the GUI to 1 very easily. However, I am unable to do the same in the TUI (for a HPC system).
I would appreciate any help on:
a. Being able to change the volume fraction of phase-2 in the initialization menu in TUI.
b. Initialize the case with results from the first timestep in the TUI.
Thank you.

Ansys EmployeeThat should be possible if you know how to use the text user interface commands to change the values of standard initialization / or to patch.
1/Make use of Quick Search Toolbar to find quicly the required text user commands
2/Alternative you prepare the data file you want to start from, then on the cluster you /file/read-case-data yourfile and then you start running.

SubscriberThank you for the quick response. I will try both routes, and update here when possible.
