Dear Friend,

I am trying to learn about the "UDF" in my application. I used the simple pipe case, at the initial inlet Pressure will increase with the flow-time and later on become a steady state. Outlet pressure is at 0 pa (gauge pressure). I am trying to plot the Inlet face pressure vs flow time, which should be a simple ramp-step function. I am not sure, I am not getting the desired ramp-step when I plot. I am not sure why my for loop is not read, is there anything wrong with the codes any suggestions

Do you require an UDF for that? Actually a simple Fluent Expression will fit in. Even a transient table or profile will fit in.
Other point: Where are you hooking the UDF? Screenshot of panel, please.

I tend to use IF statements and keep things simple. So,
IF time< 10 pressure = whatever
ELSE pressure=something else

[DrAmine]

the slope is better handle via something like
myvalue= Current_Time*max_value/max_time that value to be hooked as Total Pressure in the Inlet Panel (assuming subsonic inlet where only that input is required).

And again better to use Expressions...

thanks it work
