Postprocessing STAR-CCM+ results in ParaView

philipp_buehl · October 31, 2018, 08:21

Hello,

I want to visualize the results of my 3D-CFD STAR-CCM+ calculation with ParaView. I need to use ParaView because I want to use plugins form the Heidelberg University for detecting vortex cores. I installed ParaView from the university homepage, because this already includes the plugin which I want to use.

Now, my problem. I export my results in STAR-CCM+ as .case-Files. Afterwards I open the .case-File in ParaView. There I can only see the grid data and no numerical data. Where is my mistake?

Thank you,
Philipp

When you exported the .case files, did you choose which scalars/vectors you wanted to export on the regions you wanted?
