[General] Viewing instantaneous Angle of Attack

Tarak · April 29, 2013, 13:41

Hii,

I am running an oscillating airfoil case
(oscillating sinusoidally as alpha=alpha_mean+amplitude*sin(omega*t)).
In paraview I want to the instantaneous Angle of Attack being shown. Presently "annotate time" allows shifting and scaling of time, and if there is something similar to scale time sinusoidally rather than by a fixed number, it will be really good. Can anyone giv me any idea about how I can annotate the angle of attack on the screen?

Thanks,
Tarak
