You will see centerline created under User Locations and Plots.

In the experiment, we are only able to measure the temperature at two points. First, at the inlet of the pipe and second, after the adiabatic mixing stage. The simulation can show us the variation of temperature in between these two points.

To create the desired plot:

Insert > Chart 
Please name this chart "Centerline Temperature". You will see Details of Centerline Temperature appear on the lower left panel.

We'll go through the tabs in the menu to specify the plot that we want. Select the General tab and name the chart "Temperature Variation along Pipe Axis".

Moving on, please select 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 FLUENTChange Name and Location.


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-axial position on the x axis of the chart. We will start by defining the X-axis:

Click on X Axis tab. Next to Variable, choose X.

Now the y axis: Click on Y Axis tab. Next to Variable, choose Temperature.


In the Line Display tab, use the default setting:

You will see Centerline Temperature created under Report in the Outline tab.
