[Paraview] Creating vectors using multiple files and Vector projections on a Slice

2012-12-21 Thread Pradeep Jha
Hello, I have three files containing the 3 scalar magnitudes of the 3 components of a 3D velocity vector. How to I visualize the final vector and its streamlines using Paraview? Also, is it possible to visualize the projection of this final vector on both sides of a slice of the computational

Use AppendAttributes filter to get the data from the three files together in one place. Use calculator filter with expression array1sname*iHat+array2sname*jHat+rarray3sname*kHat to create the vector field. See also the python programmable filters for an alternative. Not sure what you are trying t

Hi Pradeep, David gave you a great answer which illustrates ParaView's flexibility nicely. I would add that, for reasons of convenience, performance, and efficient memory use, your best bet is to find a parallel capable reader for your data format, or to tweak your output into one of the exist
