Cannot Load Time-Series Ensight Data (*.case file format)

Opening an ensight case file formatted for a single data point (i.e. transient or single point in time) works fine...

Having a *.case file that points several data files does not work.

I can open it with a work around. And that is:

  1. Replace the wildcard * with ****
  2. Replace the "filename numbers file:" with "filename numbers:" and the list of numbers
  3. Repalce the "time values file:" with "time values:" and the times that correspond to each of the filenames

For example, see the attached original ensight data and adjusted to get it working.

  • 01_transient_original_ensight_results
  • 02_transient_modified_ensight_results

Also there, as a comparison is results from a steady state run (00_steadyState_ensight_results), to show it also works if only a single data point is indicted

My ensight data was created from CFD software Simerics... but this should not be relevant.
