Chapter 6: Flow Visualization Example: Structured Mesh

This chapter is intended for users of structured mesh CFD software and those using the PLOT3D format to import data into EnSight. In addition, this chapter describes the use of the predefined CFD functions to compute variables derived from the fluid flow analysis. It is assumed that you have already worked through the features described in flow visualization example for an unstructured mesh. After successfully completing this chapter, you should be able to:

  • load a PLOT3D dataset

  • create a part from a logical plane of the volume mesh

  • create an IJK clipping plane

  • use the predefined CFD functions

  • save an archive
