[General] Data along the surface

Praveen_krish · March 6, 2023, 00:53

Hey, I have a flow.vtu file ( picture attached). It has the data of CFD simulation over a Bicone structure. In the plane with origin (0,0,0) and normal (0,0,1) I would like to get the graph of pressure on the upper half and lower half (usually windward and leeward sides if there was AoA) vs the x coordinates. Which filter can I use to get the above data? I have heard that a Plot over the intersection of curves can be used but I don't know how to use that. Please let me know the steps involved to get the data.

I'm not sure if I understood correctly, but I would say that you could use the plot over line filter defining the line over the parts of the surface you're interested in, then you could either plot the pressure as a function of the line's length or of x if I remember correctly
