Generating a zip-compressed archive with the results at simulation run-time and using the command-line tool to extract the contents of that archive
To run the model, from a command line run:
run-extract.cmd
The contents of run-extract.cmd are:
REM Run the solver with the *PZIP card to natively export .panzip results pan2 -s 24_extract_thermal > 24_extract_thermal.out pan2 -s 24_extract_mechanical > 24_extract_mechanical.out REM Extract thermal and mechanical results panzip x 24_extract_thermal.panzip panzip x 24_extract_mechanical.panzip REM Extracted results are here. Import case files in Local sim dir unzip
This automatically goes through the process of executing the thermal and mechanical simulation results, then immediately extracting those results to the unzip directory. The end of the process shown in the terminal is:
Mesh file = ./24_extract_mechanical/results/24_extract_mechanical_24.geo Variable file = ./24_extract_mechanical/results/24_extract_mechanical00_48.dis.ens Variable file = ./24_extract_mechanical/results/24_extract_mechanical00_48.tmp.ens Variable file = ./24_extract_mechanical/results/24_extract_mechanical00_48.typ.ens Variable file = ./24_extract_mechanical/results/24_extract_mechanical00_48.rct.ens Variable file = ./24_extract_mechanical/results/24_extract_mechanical00_48.rcd.ens Finished writing VTK file unzip/24_extract_mechanical/results/24_extract_mechanical00_48.vtk Mesh file = ./24_extract mechanical/results/24_extract_mechanical 25.geo Variable file = ./24_extract_mechanical/results/24_extract_mechanical00_49.dis.ens Variable file = ./24_extract_mechanical/results/24_extract_mechanical00_49.tmp.ens Variable file = ./24_extract_mechanical/results/24_extract_mechanical00_49.typ.ens Variable file = ./24_extract_mechanical/results/24_extract_mechanical00_49.rct.ens Variable file = ./24_extract_mechanical/results/24_extract_mechanical00_49.rcd.ens Finished writing VTK file unzip/24_extract_mechanical/results/24_extract_mechanical00_49.vtk Finished extracting results to "unzip" directory Zip file size = 2,025,701 bytes (4.51 %) Case file size = 44,961,711 bytes VTK file size = 62,159,924 bytes CPU wall for processing = 00:00:18.72 CPU wall = 00:00:20.02 Finished panzip
Actual CPU times will differ from system to system.
Navigating to the unzip directory and querying the contents shows the extracted files:
