Hello,
how can I display a surfaceScalarField in paraFoam? I have a surfaceScalarField F written in each time step. But when I open the case with paraFoam, the variable F is not available. If paraFoam can't read surfaceScalarFields, I could as well work with the field values interpolated onto a volScalarField. But I don't find an interpolation function for this - only the opposite direction (volScalarField to surfaceScalarField) seems to exist. Can you tell me the required commands to interpolate a surfaceScalarField to a volScalarField? Thanks Daniel |

Simply do:
foamToVTK -surfaceFields in your case directory, then use paraview to show the surfacefield with the glyph function. Best,
