Ensight Tips: Difference between revisions

This will load the 'Part' titled: ''2D TUFLOW Elements'' as Case Item 1.

 

 

Select the "Variables" tab within the data management window (bottom left) to view the model result scalar and vector datasets that were loaded.<br>

Activate the relevant dataset that you would like to work with. In this example we have selected, Depth, Unit Flow, Velocity and Water Level.

 

 

These results can be viewed via creating an isosurface of the dataset within the ''2D TUFLOW Elements'' Case Item.

Select >> Create >> Isosurfaces

 

 

Within the isosurfaces window:

Update the variable display contouring:

# When contouring, select the relevant maximum dataset. For example, for time varying ''Depth'' data select ''Max_Depth''. This will lock the contouring to the range of the maximum dataset. Block colors and transparencies can also be defined using this selection.

 

 

The final visualization step requires that the parent Part, ''2D TUFLOW Elements'' be flattened. Ensight is a 3D computational fluid dynamics viewing software. Flattening the parent Part locks the TUFLOW dataset to a fixed horizontal plan (2D space).
