Streamline Coloring Question - How to show integration along a path?

I want to color streamlines in CFD Post with cumulative exposure to a scalar field. For example, let's say I want to design a UV water treatment device by flowing water with parasites through a straight pipe with a turbulence generator. Let's also say that the UV light is represented in the simulation by a scalar field and that the goal of the simulation is to determine the effectiveness of different turbulence generators in exposing the parasites to the UV field. Finally, let's say that the parasites are very small and follow the flow streamlines perfectly so that the working fluid is water and no particle tracking is involved.
What I want out of CFD Post is to colour streamlines with cumulative exposure to the scalar field and I have yet to figure out how to get it to do this. I want to see the exposure along different paths visually. My problem is different from the example I gave but much harder to explain and an answer to the above will work just as well for what I have actually done. I am able to integrate along the streamlines and get the answer I am looking for but showing cumulative exposure along streamlines would be great for the paper I am writing. Any help is greatly appreciated. |
