You may define a subset of the particles to export by setting up filters (see [[SMS:PTM Graphical Interface|PTM Particle Filters]]). For example, you may decide to only write particles with a specific range of grain size, or particles from a specific source.

This command writes a portion of a particle set to a new a particle file. This portion may be a subset of the timesteps for the particle solution, a subset of the particles, or both. You get to this command by right-clicking on a particle set and choosing Extract subset (times/particles).

The required information for this command includes:

  • The filename to write the particle subset to.
  • The first and last time steps that define the range of time you want export.
  • Whether to write every time step, every other time step, every third time step, etc.

You may define a subset of the particles to export by setting up filters (see PTM Particle Filters). For example, you may decide to only write particles with a specific range of grain size, or particles from a specific source.

The extracted particle set will have the same datasets that exist in the original particle set.
