Identify a vortex in CFD Post
 
3 Attachment(s)
Hey guys,

I did a simulation of a delta wing and I am now wondering if the results show a leading edge vortex because I am not 100% sure about it. The streamline doesnt look the way I would expect a streamline within a vortex to look like. Also I wouldnt have expected such high velocities above the vortex in the contour plot plane. I also visualised the q-criterion of which I believe that it does show a vortex. But again I am more concerned about the other two plots as I am not sure if they suppose to look like that.

Thank you very much in advance for any help!!!!!!! Much appreciated:)
