Defining a dimensionless velocity field function

hammertime93 · October 23, 2015, 10:24

Hello all,

I am looking to plot the normalised velocity in the x direction by dividing by the inlet velocity (i.e. u_x/u_0), however I'm unsure of the syntax to use for specifying the component of velocity in the x direction. I have tried $$velocity[1] but I'm fairly sure that this is wrong. I can't seem to find this information in the manual so a speedy response from someone familiar with the software would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!
