چکیده

We present a technique called ow surface probes for interactive visualization of 3D steady vector elds. The user places in the ow eld an arbitrarily-shaped seed surface, which is then deformed over time by the local or global 3D vector eld, producing an animation sequence. This sequence and individual frames are used to probe the behavior of the ow eld.

Flow Visualization Around a Non - Circular Tube

The flow behavior around a cam shaped tube in cross flow has been investigated experimentally using flow visualization and pressure distribution measurement. The range of attack angle and Reynolds number based on an equivalent circular diameter are within 0 ≤ α ≤ 360˚ and 2 x 104 < Reeq < 3.4 x 104, respectively. The pressure drag features are clarified in relation to the flow behavior around t...

GPU-Based Streamlines for Surface-Guided 3D Flow Visualization

Visualizing 3D flow fields intrinsically suffers from problems of clutter and occlusion. A common practice to alleviate these issues is to restrict the visualization to feature surfaces that capture important characteristics of the underlying data. However, this often comes at costs of losing information due to the inherent projection of the 3D field on a 2D surface, which may limit the techniq...

Texture Advection on Stream Surfaces: A Novel Hybrid Visualization Applied to CFD Simulation Results

Stream surfaces are a classic flow visualization technique used to portray the characteristics of vector fields, and texture advection research has made rapid advances in recent years. We present a novel hybrid visualization of texture advection on stream surfaces. This approach conveys properties of the vector field that stream surfaces alone cannot. We apply the visualization technique to var...

FlowVisual: A Visualization App for Teaching and Understanding 3D Flow Field Concepts

The study of fluid behaviors has been a challenging topic. Flow visualization enables us to visually acquire qualitative and quantitative flow information. There exist various software tools performing different flow visualization tasks. However, we lack tools that help students learn important flow field concepts. In this paper, we present a visualization app, named FlowVisual which runs on iO...
