streamlines, streaklines for 3d flow

April 15, 2005, 20:16

Hi, I have a very complicated 3d flow field and I want to plot streaklines/streamlines for it. Can anyone please suggest me where can I find more information on this. may be some concepts/subroutine/etc.. amol

Tecplot is probably the best way to plot such files. Also if your geometry is a simple one try using gnuplot. Dont try to plot files using c++ graphical libraries , might not offer all the capabilities of a powerful graphical system. -H
