  Hello,
  I have a project in Ansys AQWA, and I have produced a contour of wave elevation amplitude that looks like this. I cannot figure out if there is a way to output this contour data as a .csv file. The Excel project type doesn't link with Hydrodynamic Diffraction, and there is no Export option in AQWA. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello Ashish,nI hope you're having a happy holiday! I have a follow up question from earlier. This is what my wave elevation amplitudes look like at the surface. The amplitude of the incident wave is 0.085 m with a forward velocity of 4.54 m/s, and by and large these are the results I was expecting.nThis is the type of data I get from ANALYSIS.LISnWhat are the units of measure for amplitude in the analysis file? These are an order of magnitude higher than I would expect, and the numbers don't agree with the contour plot at all. What equation is Ansys using for head of water based on velocity and wave height?nThank you,nBrando
