READ, Fname, NSKIP, Format, Xfield, Yfield, Zfield, pRfield, pIfield
Reads coordinate and pressure data from a file.
FnameFile name and directory path (248 characters maximum, including the characters needed for the directory path). An unspecified directory path defaults to the working directory; in this case, you can use all 248 characters for the file name.
NSKIPNumber of lines at the beginning of the file that
will be skipped while it is read. Default = 0. NSKIP is ignored for FileType = CFXTBR or CFDPOST
on the FTYPE command.
FormatFor FileType = FORMATTED
on the FTYPE command, Format is the read format in the FORTRAN FORMAT convention enclosed in
parentheses; for example: (3e10.0,10x,e10.0,70x,e10.0)
Xfield, Yfield, Zfield, pRfield, pIfieldFor FileType = CSV on the FTYPE command, these are field numbers locating the coordinates
and real and imaginary (if present) pressures. The field value may
not exceed 20.
Reads coordinate and pressure data from the specified file. The file type must have been previously specified on the FTYPE command.
Upon reading the file, nodes are created for the source points.
For FileType = CFXTBR or CFDPOST on the FTYPE command, if face data is available, SURF154 elements are also created. A nodal component named SOURCENODES and
an element component named SOURCEELEMS are created automatically.
