2.4. Other External Data Sources

The following topics are included in this section:

2.4.1. External Translators

Translators supplied with the EnSight application enable you to use data files from many popular engineering packages. These translators are found in the translators directory on the EnSight distribution CD. (Installed translators reside in the $CEI/ensight242/translators directory.) A README file is supplied for each translator to help you understand the operation of each Particular translator. These translators are not supported by Ansys, but are supplied at no-cost and as source files, where possible, to allow user modification and porting.

2.4.2. Exported from Analysis Codes

Several Analysis codes can export data in EnSight file formats. Examples of these include Fluent, STAR-CD, CFX and others.
