Hello everyone,
I would like to know if is there any possible way to import the data of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis in MATLAB from ANSYS or Creo? Thank you.
In FLUENT, File--> Export-->Solution data-->File type ASCII-->choose any variable on the right side panel with option to extract data on any face/surface in the computational domain. X & Y coordinates of the mesh will be automatically exported along with any chosen variable.
In MATLAB, open the ASCII file (with extension .txt) using fscanf function with specific format and number of columns in a script. The exported data will be suitably vectorized for further analysis.
As long as you can export in a common file format (csv, txt, etc.) you will be able to import your data into matlab.

1- Export any parameter you want from File\export\solution data. (file type : ASCII and delimiter should be space).
2- Open file in MATLAB (drag and drop the file into Matlab workspace or use uiopen ('file address',1)).
3- Delete characters in the first line of opened script. and save it (just Ctrl+s)
4- c=dlmread('file address')
now you have a N*4 (if you just export one parameter) matrix.
