Unfortunately there's very little support for Fluent on Athena- it's not
really intended for general Athena use, but was installed at the request
of Prof. David Darmofal in Aero-Astro for his teaching and research; I
installed it for him but know very little about the software. This feature
might work if you run something else first, or it might be something
currently unlicensed- I'm just not sure. If it's an unlicensed feature,
it's pretty unlikely that we'd be able to get it for you unless Prof. 
Darmofal decides to add it to his license.

You might get something useful from the online documentation. Release notes
are in /mit/fluent_v6.0/Fluent.Inc/fluent6.0/help/pdf/rn/fl60rel.pdf. If
you ask Prof. Darmofal he might be able to direct you to someone who might
be able to help.
