Multicomponent Mixing using a Nozzle: Exercise 8—Analyzing Results
This exercise describes how you analyze the results during and after the simulation. To hide CAD surfaces (not the fluid domain), switch between Flow Analysis Bodies and CAD Bodies in the Show group. Click XYPlot Panel to view the XY Plot.

Plotting the Temperature at the Outlet Boundary
1. In Boundary Conditions > General Boundaries select Nozzle_Outlet.
2. Click XYPlot. A new entity xyplot1 is added in the Flow Analysis Tree under Results > Derived Surfaces > XY Plots.
3. Select xyplot1.
4. In the Properties panel, set the Variable as Temperature.
