Re: [Paraview] particle tracking on top of unsteady flow solution

wow, thanks a lot for this! I am on a report deadline at the moment but will try it afterwards. I guess the easiest way is just to write integers (1, 2, 3 ...) as the timesteps to the cgns file which should make the mapping work without problems. In any case, I will fiddle around a bit with

OK try this. Apply a Programmable Filter to the csv file. Turn on advanced properties on that panel and use the following scripts: Script: oi = self.GetOutputInformation(0) ut = oi.Get(vtk.vtkStreamingDemandDrivenPipeline.UPDATE_TIME_STEP()) t = inputs[0].RowData['t']

Hi Tom-Robin, ParaView does not support having a time series of particles within a single csv file. You can have a file series of csv files as described here: http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/Users_Guide/Loading_Data Unfortunately, you will not be able to specify a time value in this case.

Hi,  I am doing particle tracking at the moment and I am visualise my results with paraview. I have a 3D Navier Stokes solver from which I get a CGNS file with the flow solution (for example velocity and vorticity in x, y and z) and I also get csv file where I store position of particles,

Marcelo, Is this using OSMesa for offscreen rendering? There was a memory leak in 3.10.0 that has been subsequently fixed when saving animations with OS Mesa and offscreen rendering enabled. Utkarsh On Mon, Feb 20, 2012 at 6:23 AM, Marcelo Emmel marc...@emmel.eng.br wrote: Jean Favre jfavre at

Berk Oops. I didn't notice that it was a "steady state" flow field. The TemporalStremTRacer expects unsteady flows, however it would be quite simple to modify it to use a single step. (I think easier than taking streamlines and animating particles along them - though thinking about it, the

Interesting. I guess the biggest challenge of doing this in our pipeline would be finding the time range. Ideally, the integration should continue until all particles leave the domain or get stuck in a stagnant region. That would require integrating them first and then looking at the largest

This conversation has basically become academic, but it would also be pretty easy to create a filter that reported a bunch of time steps and just passed the same data every time. The particle tracer would thing it was a time varying data even though it was not. Jean's solution is still easier

Hi Pei-Ying, You may want to try ParaView Meshless (https://twiki.cscs.ch/twiki/bin/view/ParaViewMeshless). It is a version of ParaView with the cutting edge of John Biddiscombe's particle tracking work in it. Some of those features will be/have been integrated into the main paraview code, but I
