Great! I am already using keyframes on fuel, temperature and time scale. Using magnet force sounds like an interesting idea. I'll take a look. Thanks again!

Yes, but the idea is to stop the explosion from expanding and not just slow it down. I am currently running some tests with animating the Gas Released parameter but I still can't get it to stop expanding unless I set to value to 0. But that kills the explosion.

I need the fire the expand, stop expanding at a certain point and then swirl around at that point a bit like in the reference video.

Hi,

I am trying to making an explosion similar to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mn2ArzRGX30 [youtube.com] (00:13 onwards). The explosion expands really quickly and at a point it just stop expanding and swirls around a bit. I figured out the expansion but I am having difficulty with trying to get the explosion to stop expanding.

I tried using a negative divergence, a drag force and a keying the Gas Released but none of it worked. Anyone have any better ideas on how to approach this?

Thanks.
