Problem: What process does Tecplot use for probing in 3D? Also for streamtrace placement contour labeling linear interpolation and polyline extraction in 3D. Determine the weighting to ģD Probe Calculation Calculation, Tecplot 360 September 24, 2009
Determine the triangle that encloses the chosen point.
For triangular cells, this is a straightforward interpolation of the three nodal values of the triangle that encloses the point:1. Solution: In two dimensions Tecplot interpolates for dataset values at the chosen point using bilinear interpolation. Problem: What process does Tecplot use for probing? Also for streamtrace placement contour labeling linear interpolation and polyline extraction in 2D. ĢD Probe calculation Calculation, Tecplot 360 September 24, 2009 Problem: How can I calculate and display vectors normal to a surface? Solution: Load your dataset and then perform the following steps to calculate normal vectors in Tecplot 360 (not available in Tecplot Focus): Click on the Analyze menu and select Calculate Variables Select Grid K Unit Normal (vector) Set the New Var Location to Cell Center or Node, depending on the desired vector location with respect to the grid. You can encode the uncompressed AVI files to MPEG4 which reduces the size to a fraction of the uncompressed size while Ĭalculate and display normal vectors Calculation, Tecplot 360, Vector September 24, 2009 Is there a way to make them smaller but still able to play on these platforms? Solution: Yes. Problem: I can create AVI files in my Tecplot product with the compression set to Lossless Uncompressed to play on a Linux or Macintosh platform but these files are very large. One of the options is Index skip and this setting will apply to both scatter points and vectors.ĪVI animation files are too large Animation, Export, Tecplot 360 September 24, 2009 Solution: On the Zone Style dialog, go to the Points tab. I want to show vectors or scatter but not at every point. Skip vectors or scatter points Scatter, Tecplot 360, Vector September 24, 2009 Solution: Linking on the Between Frames page of the dialog will cause the changes in one frame to apply to all frames. But when I change the label font for one frame te other frames do not change. Then I pressed the button for Apply Settings to All Frames. Problem: I have several frames in my layout and I set the Within Frame Axis Style to be linked. Linking with frames Apply Settings to all Frames Frames, Tecplot 360 September 24, 2009 Watch the LaTeX video tutorial Problem: Some variable names in my data file include one Greek character or another We test against MiKTeX and TeXLive but should be compatible with other LaTeX engines. This gives you the ability to use your installed version of LaTeX to display complex formulae and equations directly on your plots. November 2017 Update: LaTeX Fonts are available in Tecplot 360 2017 Release 3 and later. Greek or special character in variable name or text Tecplot 360, Text September 24, 2009
On the Curves page, set the Curve Fit for the new mapping to the General Curve Fit (One Solution: You can have Tecplot calculate and plot the average for a line mapping: In the Mapping Style dialog Copy the line mapping and make sure the copy is shown. Problem: In my XY Line plot, I want to show a line for the average value of one of the XY Mappings. Average of XY Mapping Calculation, Tecplot 360, XY Plot September 24, 2009
