Hello.

I'm running a simulation of a tank with two liquid phases, one above the other. I need to know a way of displaying the wave surface in the interface between these two phases in Fluent. Basically, I want to do the same as in this thread:

Except that I want to do it on Fluent, not Paraview. Does anyone know how to do it?

Thank you very much.

To capture the fluid1-fluid2 interface in post processing all you have to do is to define in fluent an isosurface (phase-1 or phase-2 with volume fraction = 0.5)
