Ansys Fluent: Modifying DPM Sample Output Number Format

 Unfortunately, ANSYS Fluent doesn't offer a direct way to modify the number format for DPM (Discrete Phase Model) sample output. The output format is typically fixed in scientific notation (e.g., 1.1e+00).

Here are some alternative approaches you can consider:


 * Pre-processing: Before importing the sample data, you can use a text editor or a scripting tool (e.g., Python) to manipulate the coordinates and adjust the number of decimal places to your desired level of precision.

 * Post-processing: After the simulation, you can extract the relevant data (coordinates) from the output files and perform post-processing calculations to achieve the formatting you need.

 * Scaling and Offsets: If the issue is mainly about the coordinates being outside the domain, you can explore scaling the entire sample cloud or applying a specific offset in ANSYS Fluent to bring it within the appropriate range.

For more advanced control over the sample data format, you might consider exploring user-defined functions (UDFs) or custom programming techniques. However, these methods require a deeper understanding of ANSYS Fluent's internal functionalities and may involve coding expertise.
