VTK file for visualisation of stream line in paraview

VTK file for visualisation of stream line in paraview was created by Younghigh
Hi,

After running the following code:
Code:
V = VectorL2(mesh, order=2, dgjumps=True) Q = L2(mesh, order=1, dgjumps=True) X = FESpace([V,Q]) ... gfu = GridFunction(X) ... uh, ph = gfu.components vtk = VTKOutput(ma=mesh, coefs=[uh,uh[0],uh[1],ph,grad(uh)[0,0]+grad(uh)[1,1]],\ names=["velsol","usol","vsol","psol","divsol"], filename="plot_ex", subdivision=3) vtk.Do()
I cannot see the stream line graph of the velocity field but just a plane plot of Norm(uh). How can we recieve stream line graph, i.e., a vector graph with vector-valued (uh[0], uh[1]) in VTKOutput(...)?

Best,
Di Yang

Hi Di Yang,

This is not a problem of ngsolve or vtk, it's a Paraview thing (you can also find it in the forum several times). Paraview only treats 3D vector fields for streamlines and other filters. So, extend your 2D by a third component and you are fine. You can do this during export or on the Paraview side using the Calculator filter.

Best,
Christoph
