Local Nusselt number vs theta

Aarthy Meena · December 24, 2015, 08:30

Hello all,

I am Aarthy Meena. I am a newbie to fluent and this forum.

I am simulating flow and heat transfer around a circular cylinder. I have completed the simulations and got the results. But, I do not know how to plot local nusselt number distribution over cylinder surface.

Flow over a circular cylinder :
I need to export the data and plot in tecplot (Nu vs theta).

I also need to plot C_p over theta and wall vorticity over theta.

Kindly, pls help me...

Hello Aarthy,

You might carefully review the first six Tecplot 360 EX tutorials on external flow on this page: http://www.tecplot.com/blog/category/video/ to assist in solving your problem.

Sorry that I can’t be of specific help.
