Moving on, please select the Data Series tab. This tab will help us specify the source of the chart data. Change the name of the first data series from Series 1 to FLUENT. Under Data Source, specify Centerline as Location. Click Apply. On top of this would would also like to plot the experimental data, which can be downloaded here. Download it to a directory of your choice.
Now that we have our data sources, we will proceed by specifying the axes. We want to see the variation of temperature with the length of the pipe. Therefore, temperature will be on the y axis of the chart and x-position on the x axis of the chart. We will start by defining the X-axis:

You need to repeat the FLUENT simulation with inputs from YOUR MEASUREMENTS in the lab. To compare the FLUENT results with experiment, you can export the FLUENT result into Excel. A sample comparison is shown below. The experiment data can be downloaded here.
You can export the data by clicking on the Export button in "Details of centerline temperature"
