How to generate high-quality 3D streamline plots
Hi everyone,
I'd like to know how to generate a high quality pdf of a streamline plot in ANSYS 14.0 CFDpost. Is it even possible? I failed today. What's the best attempt? Maybe with TecPlot? But I failed exporting data with CFDpost! How can I do that? Is there help for me out there? Thanks! Everyone... |
? This is straight forward in any post processing package, including CFD-Post.
Although if you want a pdf of the image I suspect you will need to produce an image in PNG or JPG format and then convert that the PDF using a tool like adobe acrobat, PDFwriter or ghostview/ghostscript. |

Hi everyone,
the point is that I usually use tikz/pgfplot for 2D visualization, what means I am used to generate vectorplots from CFD data. I tried it with png (works ok, but not high-quality) and eps. The eps export has the disadvantage that all legends, texture, etc are bitmaps. I converted it to a pdf with acrobat pro, but I am not really happy at all. I tried to export the data and then make a vector graphic, but failed up to now. Hasn't anybody done this before me? Thanks for your replies. |

If you are not happy with the pictures from cfdpost (tried .tiff?) then you would need to export your data to some other program to make the visualization. I use cfdpost, paraview and matlab. |
Hi,
If you want to load your CFD results in Tecplot, you can export your data as a .CGNS file. The option to export as a .CGNS file is found under the "Tools" menu bar in the solver manager. Good luck, Dave |
When you export images, use the screen dump option and set a high resolution. Then you get pretty hires images without the hassle of vector formats like eps. That is how I get pretty images out of CFD-Post.

Thanks guys! I'll try it with both methods CGNS/Tecplot and screen dump option and set a high resolution. Great! Then I'll post my experience! Great.
