[General] [2D] - Flow over a line

alexv_cfd · January 15, 2013, 06:36

Hi,

So far, i had lots of success using paraview. I have unfortunaly one thing i can't do, it's compute my flow over a line.

My data are 2D (shallow water simulation). I need to integrate my (h*V) vectors along some lines to estimate the flow ( hV.dl ).
I've try the "surface flow" filter with no success, as i don't really have a "surface" to select. In 3D, this surface would be in the Z plane but my datas are only on the X/Y planes.

I found this post but it's not helping.

Thanks for helping.

Hi,

I didn't understand actually what's your problem, but plot over line probably solves your problem.

Regards,
Ali
