I am attempt to view contours for temperature for overall domain of my geometry which it 3D but CFD post not offer full domain view ? so how i can view it then?

HI,
Do you modeling a part of domain for example linear rotational periodicity? If yes, in CFD-Post in domain card, expand the part of domain to full geometry. Then first of all type of which you build a contour of selected variables.

In CFD-post you can plot contours on different locators which may be domain boundaries, planes, isosurfaces and so on. So what exactly you need?

Hi Antanas Yes i want plot contours for temperature but for the full domain (volume) not just in a face or a surface my geometry is a 3D channel?

A contour in 3D is a volume rendering. Insert > volume rendering in cfd-post.
Or, if you mean a surface in 3D with constant temperature value, you are looking for a isosurface. Insert > location > isosurface.

But I guess you already tried that since you are asking on the forum?

Volume Rendering is not that clear I tried it? I tried now to create a name selection for the volume in meshing call it as pipe and doing run in cfx-pre again with this method i plot contours for temperature with location pipe!

Interesting... Could you post images of what you get?

Hi Antanas Assembly in location not serve me too much because it view the contours in full domain and I want it in a specific domains see this thread please it involve little description about what I tried to do :
