Hello Paul & Stefan, I am running a DNS simulation of backward facing simulation (BFS) at Re=3000. The Reynolds # is based on step height (h=1) & free stream velocity (ux = 1.0). The BFS geometry has 5184 elements and lx1=ly1=lz1=8. After running for about 10 flow throughs, we started computing averages. I want to restart simulation after 2 flow throughs, but I have 2 field files one for instantaneous (blah.fld01) and the other for average (avgblah.fld01). To continue computing averages I need to read in both the velocity field files. Is there an option to restart from 2 field files? Or how else can I do this? I will also require this option later for computing "rms" velocities. Thanks, Harish.
