Hello

In fluent (or CFD-post) what is the algorithm for interpolating the result across the entire surface? I know the simulation computes the variables at the nodes, however, what algorithm does the software use when plotting contours or extracting the information at any coordinate?

Thank you

AlexanderZ will become famous soon enoughAlexanderZ will become famous soon enough
the reason why you need to get plotting algorithm is unclear
you may write all data into used defined node locations and plot by your own
