Using Post Processing Planes
The Post-Processing Planes tab lets you create plane sections.
You can create plane sections with this tab of the wizard.
Begin by entering a name for the plane section in the Section Name text box.
Make your selection of scalar values to display by ticking the appropriate checkbox:
- Temperature
- Extinction Coefficient
- Soot Density
- Visibility Light-Emitting
- Visibility Light-Reflecting
Enter the appropriate coordinates for the origin and normal.
Once you have finished, you can create the plane section by clicking the Create Section button. The name of the section appears in the Created Sections list.
The plane section also appears in the object tree within the Derived Parts node.
It is also possible to manage the plane sections in the list:
- To change a section, select its name in the list, make changes, and click Modify Section.
- To create another section similar to an existing one, select the name of the section in the list, make changes to it, give it a new name and click Create Section. An additional section appears in the list. If you did not name it, a number 2 is added to the original section’s name by default.
- To delete a section, select it in the list and click Delete Section.
The Update Frequency setting lets you control how often the scene containing the data should be updated during the solver run. The default setting is 1, or each iteration.
Finally, you can select a file format for output of the displayed data to an image file.
