Result output chart

Hi can anyone tell me how to output result chart using normalised figures?

I got result chart for the flow velocity over a flat plate (i.e. velocity-length of flat plate) but I would like to normalise the result (i.e. streamwise velocity/bulk velocity-length of flat plate/height of the flat plate). But I have no idea to adjust the output....

You have to create an "expression" which mathematically defines what you want to plot. Then you plot this expression on your chart.
Sometimes if it gets too complex or involves remote variables, you can export the data and do it in excel.

But the expression edited by myself is not included in the Chart>X Axis>Data Selection>Variable...How do I add my expression there? Thanks!

Checkmark the custom data selection box?
It is not a variable, it is an expression. If you need sa variable define one based off your expression.
