In some cases, you may have data where there are many variables and, for some of the zones some of those variables are not important or not calculated. However, within a given data set you must supply the same number of variables for each zone. Tecplot 360 can manage many data sets at the same time. Be sure to write to a parallel file system.Use TecIO-MPI which writes SZL files in parallel.More information can be found for binary data TECAUXSTR142 in the Binary Data File Function Reference section, and for ASCII data in the Data Set Auxiliary Data Record section of the Data Format Guide. Auxiliary data is supported by both binary and ASCII formats. For example, it can be used to set the defaults for which variables to use for certain kinds of plots. Zone Auxiliary data can be used to give Tecplot 360 hints about properties of your data. Add Auxiliary data to Preset Variable Assignments in Tecplot 360 Point format is allowed for ASCII files, but running the Preplot utility will convert the data to block format.įor more information about the Preplot flag, see the Preplot section in the Tecplot 360 User’s Manual in our Documentation, or watch this helpful video tutorial Preplot and SZL Convert Tools. Binary files can only be written in block format. If your data files are small and you can only obtain the data in a point-like format (for example, with a spreadsheet), then using point format is acceptable. Use Block Format instead of Point Formatīlock format is by far the most efficient format when it comes to loading a file into Tecplot 360.
