Streamlines

The following videos show how to plot streamlines using the CFD Post post-processor included in ANSYS Workbench. First, we plot streamlines emanating from the the inlet.

The streamlines emanating from the inlet do not include those in the recirculating region or the "deadwater" region. To see the streamlines in the recirculating region, we:

• Create points along a line within the recirculating region
• Plot streamlines emanating from these points
