PALM Results - [source code]
Read a PALM output field: one variable, one time frame, as values and a colored mesh over the domain. Variables and times available in the case are listed on every solve.
Input
| Name | Nickname | Description | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Case Folder | Dir | The case folder — PALM Run's Case Folder output. Empty uses the document's session case. | Text |
| File | F | Which output file to read. Averaged fields are the ones a comfort map wants. | Text |
| Variable | V | The PALM variable to read — pick from the catalog, type any name, or check the Variables output for what the file actually offers. Empty picks the first biometeorology variable present, else the first variable. | Text |
| Frame | T | Time frame index; -1 is the last frame written so far. | Integer |
| Domain | D | The PALM Domain OR the Static Driver's Driver output, to place the mesh in model space. Unwired, the mesh sits at the world origin — the spacing always comes from the file itself. | Generic Data |
