Real transient particle behaviour

Real transient particle behaviour

Currently particle tracing is really helpful just for steady state flow. It would be great to have the opportunity to track particles vs. time.

Agree on this - the in-program animations are useful but there's no way to save it to a movie file (CFD 2014 here).  It only shows a single time step, and animates the particles within that frame.  It'd be nice to show developed particle paths for each time step as the frames.

This would be really useful. And it should be easy to implement a quick fix by simply splicing together the current save steps?

This has been on the roadmap, but I just am not at liberty to guarantee it’s inclusion or which release we are targeting for this feature. Addressing this functionality request involves adding additional physics capabilities to the way we calculate and track the particles, store the data, etc. Other things to consider when including this feature are how the particles interact with moving solids, interpolation for irregularly saved time steps, and how this might change our visualization techniques.
