Hi,

I am having a visualization issue when I try to visualize a threshold isosurface (in my case it is Level set = 0 for multiphase flow). I notice the surface is broken where my domain is decomposed (MPI blocks). The surface here is a threshold taken after the "Cell data to Point data" filter is applied.

Any tips or suggestions on getting a smooth or at least continuous surface across MPI blocks??

Thanks in advance!

There is similar issue when working with Vof solvers in OpenFOAM with overset grids. By searching threads it is that the interface is not solved for and thus this kind of discontinuity in the interface/contour visualization

Actually I was able to find a solution by using these filters:

Merge blocks > Ghost Cell Generator > Cell to point data > Threshold
