ghost82 Senior Member Rick Join Date: Oct 2010 Posts: 1,016 Rep Power: 27	Hi, I just ended a simulation of an agitated tank; when I plot contours of z velocity (z is the vertical coordinate) on a plane passing from its axis, when I click compute I obtain: min: -0,5768225 m/s max: 0,7223098 m/s When I plot vectors (vectors of velocity, color by Z velocity, in plane and fixed length options enabled) on the same plane I obtain: min: -1,00156 m/s max: 0,7689688 m/s Why these values are different? Thank you Daniele
