Default Plotting pressure profile along a complex tubular structure

Hello! I am new to CFD I have simulated flow through a complex tubular structure (model of a human trachea) and I am analysing the results. I would like to look at pressure change along the length of the structure using an XY plot.


For the Y axis I know how to select the scalar function, however I am unsure what to plot for the X axis. I have both a centreline and arbitrary planes(which are planes normal to the centreline) along the length of the structure however I can only see the option to plot either a 'direction' or a scalar function along the X axis.

Any help would be much appreciated!

sounds like you should use the scalar field function which is the x component within the velocity vector - this assumes x is pointing along the axis of your domain and the tube is straight
