Dear experts,


Is it possible to export a velocity profile (i.e.- a plot with x and y coordinates) to Matlab ?


If so, how can I do it ?


Thanks in advance!

If you want it on a line, these are the basic steps:

• Define the line in Fluent (Surface -> Line)
• Go to 'plots'
• Select 'xy-plot' (or something similar, I don't remember the name)
• Select the quantity that you want to plot
• Select the line that you defined earlier
• Plot to file
• Load the file in Matlab

Hi pakk,

Thanks a lot. I will try it on later.


Is it possible to plot the velocity field on an arc instead of on a straight line ? i.e.-to see how does the velocity field look like on an arc in my flow field?

I have also published this question in another post.
