Post-processor

cfdpost · October 18, 2011, 10:53

Hi all,

I'm looking for a post-processor which can show and visualize the modeling result of my project. However, I do not know which open source post processor I should choose as I'm still new to CFD (not sure about features that researchers normally looking for). Can anyone suggest or give me hints?

Thanks in advance

You can try Paraview http://paraview.org/ , it's free and opensource and at par in many respects with commercial softwares.

Tecplot360 is the most widely used, but I guess it's also the most expensive!
