Can anybody tell me the importance and use of iso-surface and iso-clip. ?
where and when iso-surface and iso-clip normally use in CFD results ?
if anybody know the link, book or any other material please share for knowledge.
thanks

Hello Qureshi,

An isosurface is a surface upon which a particular variable has a constant value, called the level. For instance, an Isosurface of pressure would be a surface consisting of all the points in the geometry where the pressure took a value of 1.32e+05 Pa. In CFD-Post, isosurfaces can be defined using any variable.

An iso clip hides the portion of one or more locators subject to one or more constraints (visibility parameters) that you specify. Note that Iso clips have the following restrictions:
• Iso clip locators interpolate values using a method that is slightly less accurate than that used for slice planes
and isosurfaces.
• Iso clips cannot clip volumes.
• Iso clips cannot have mix of faces and lines.
