STAR-CCM+ velocity magnitude problem!

lucbutt · April 24, 2017, 03:07

As seen in the image attachment, the velocity magnitude value are not showing up. It fine with the Cd and Cl however no visualization in the velocity magnitude. Can someone please help me out, its for my studies and is extremely important

Need more information. Can you go to the scene/plot tab and expand out all the displayers in the tree? Also, is the volume mesh representation selected?

It looks like you have created a default Scalar Scene. This adds the region to the Outline displayer but doesn't add it to the Scalar displayer that is actually responsible for visualizing the Velocity magnitude in your case. Can you please make sure that the region/boundaries you want to show the velMag on is added to the list of parts of the Scalar displayer and that the Volume representation is used for this displayer?
