In the Post Processing window, click Vector to create a vector result. When prompted, name the result Velocity Vector. In the Details of Velocity Vector window, begin on the Geometry tab. Under Locations, select Periodic 1. This will show the velocity along the entire geometry surface periodically. Next, click on the Symbol tab. Change the Symbol Size to 0.1. Finally, move to the View tab. We want to see the entire geometry of the pipe: not just half of it like we currently see. To see the whole pipe, check the box next to Apply Reflection/Mirroring, and change the Method to ZX Plane. Because the pipe is long and skinny, it will be difficult to see the results. This post processor allows us to stretch the results to make the results easier to see. To apply a scaling, check the box next to Apply Scale, and change the Scale to 1,10,1 (this will scale the y-direction by 10). When finished, press Apply to see the result. If you wish to see the result without the wireframe of the pipe, uncheck the box next to Wireframe under User Location and Plots.

Velocity Contour

In the Post Processing window, click Contour to create a Contour result. When prompted, name the result Velocity Contour. In the Details of Velocity Contour window, begin on the Geometry tab. Under Locations, again select Periodic 1. Also, change the Variable to Velocity. Next, move to the View tab. Check the box next to Apply Reflection/Mirroring, and change the Method to ZX Plane and again,check the box next to Apply Scale, and change the Scale to 1,10,1. When finished, press Apply to see the result. Finally, we need to remove the Velocity Vectors from the Graphic Window. Do this by unchecking the box next to Velocity Vector in the Outline window under User Location and Plots. Image Removed

Temperature Contour

In the Post Processing window, click Contour to create another Contour result. When prompted, name the result Temperature Contour. In the Details of Temperature Contour window, begin on the Geometry tab. Under Locations, select Periodic 1. This time, change the Variable to Temperature. Next, move to the View tab. Apply the same mirroring and scaling as we did for the Velocity Contours. When finished, press Apply. Uncheck the box next to Velocity Contour to only see the Temperature Contours.
