[General] How to plot all the stream lines in paraview?

Maveryck · March 29, 2019, 17:12

Hi everyone,
I am simulating the case "Cavity driven lid" and I try to get all the stream lines with the stream tracer of paraview, but I only get the ones that intersect the reference line, and because of that there are vortices that are not visible. How can I see all the stream-lines in the domain?

Thanks a lot in adavance.

Are you referring to the cavity-driven-lid tutorial for OpenFOAM, by any chance? If so, then it might help if you clarify exactly which step you are on.

I would think that the linked video tutorial should be ample.
