Sreejith,
For two truly separate parts, create two separate *.vtu files. Each of
the files should have a unique name (not really necessary for PV). PV is
happy to read and display multiple datum sets -- even the same datum set
twice. If you plan later to have many parts (for example, 100 parts),
the collection can be aggregated with via a single *.pvd file (a
meta-file or "mother-file"). Having PV read the single *.pvd file will
load all of the *.vtu files referenced within the *.pvd file.
A good rule to follow is to have each part as a "standalone" displayable
graphical object.
Later on when you want to process large sets of data, EnSight-formatted
binary files incorporate a "part" concept. Also, the EnSight-formatted
data set has constructs for parallel file sets, and multiple files for
individual data streams to get around file size limitations.

Dear all,
I have tried to write an ascii vtu file with two pieces as shown below.
However when I opened it using paraview, i can only see one data set.
Could you please tell me the format of vtu files with two pieces. How
can i get both data sets into paraview.?
