Define Some Particels to Track Them

ashtonJ · May 14, 2012, 04:54

Dear All,

I want to define some particles in my artery model to track them in CFD Post.
In CFD post, when I plot the velocity vectors and create an animation of them, the velocity vectors do not move, just change their velocity magnitude, I want to put some particles in the fluid domain to track them in CFD Post and observe the fluid flow motion.
Could anybody help me to do that pls?

Regards,
Ashkan

Releasing and tracking particles? See e.g. tutorial 11, flow through a butterfly valve.
