Here are some alternate colormaps for Fluent

u2berggeist · September 10, 2018, 08:03

I made a GitHub repository that has both alternate (read better) colormaps for Fluent post processing as well as the tools to put them into Fluent easily.

Doing this was inspired by this website by Kenneth Moreland where he lists out several colormaps that are better than the standard rainbow.

If there are any other colormaps you want added, the README has some basics as to the colormap file format. Then you can just do a pull request (or just PM me with the file here if you're not on GitHub).

Let me know what you guys think!
