Input - Stream lines

December 19, 2005, 13:54

Hi,

I want to know if this is possible to do using Fluent:

I have the velocities in x and y of 7200 grid points in a 2D domain, I want to post-process this information and see the stream lines within the total domain, how can I transfer and process this information in Fluent?

Thanks

I'm not sure if this is what you asked but I'll say anyway.

If you already did you simulation and want to see the streamlines in your geometry, all you have to do is find stream function on "Graphics and Animations"....choose countours than contours of velocity and finally stream function.

Can anyone tell me how to get stream lines through a particular region rather than streamlines from velocity inlet. For example, i want more stream lines closer to the wings and the ducts and lesser streamlines in the farfield..

Any suggestion will be helpfull...
