hello

i defined a custom field function for secondary flow velocity and i wanted to take the contours out of it.

but the function i defined is not showing up in display>contours field !

is it compulsary to degine the custom field function prior to the calculation ?

pls help

What code are you using?

I've defined a function for solid secondary flow velocity as
V = sqrt((phase-2 y velocity)^2+(phase-2 z velocity)^2) i.e a simple function making use of the already available field functions in fluent
i need to take contours out of this equation !

You should be able to make contours from custom field functions. I just tested it on Fluent v15 and v17.
