Use the Read as Steady State tool to determine whether a data set should be treated
as steady or transient.
When active,
AcuFieldView will load a specific time step of a
multiple time step dataset, as selected by you, then treat it as static data. This
feature is added to provide consistent behavior between the FV-UNS data import route
and the
AcuSolve direct reader import route. When
reading FV-UNS files
AcuFieldView checks for sequences
in the file name, then prompts you to indicate whether the data is steady or
transient. The Read as Steady State tool provides this same functionality for the
AcuSolve direct reader.
Note: This option has
implications for particle path display behavior as well as the availability of
special annotation strings, such as Time=%%T or Time Step=%%N. The dataset needs
to be read as transient, with the Read as Steady State option turned off, to
restore the behavior of the direct reader to that of releases prior to Version
13.0.
