CFpost - Pulse pathine animation

Guille · October 22, 2020, 12:51

Dear all,

I am trying to record an animation of a pathlined plotted with pulses. In FLUENT just by setting the configuration of the pathline and clicking in "pulse!" bottom, I am able to get the results I want.

I was sondering if I could get the same with CFDpost. Does any of you know about it?

Kind regards.

P.S: Once I have the animation, I will record my screen to get the movie I am loking for.

Yes you can do it in CFDpost.
1) First you need to generate a streamline plot;
2) In Tools>Animation>Sweep animation, select the streamline you generated from the first step, then click play. You can save the animation as a video file as well.
There are some feature options you can choose to change the shape, size, color, speed etc.
Hope that helps.
