Does Sourceflux Book Contain Paraview Help?

m_ridzon · April 29, 2016, 10:01

I'm fairly new to OpenFOAM and will soon be buying the Sourceflux book (http://www.sourceflux.de/book/) since it's been highly recommended by some experienced OF acquaintances. Does anybody know if this book also contains discussion related to Paraview? If not, does anyone have a recommendation for a good introductory book on Paraview?

Thanks in advance,
M Ridzon

Hi Matt,

The book indeed covers some introductory paraview usage. It also includes some internal OpenFOAM based post processing such using the sample utility or gathering statistics and data during runtime.

It should help you get started. After that you generally gain more experience and learn more features by simply playing around with your cases and trying new things.

Cheers!
Kyle
