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. Clear any variable display by selecting
No Selection in the
Legend drop-down. Click
XYPlot Panel to view the XY Plot.
| 1. To show/hide selected geometric entities, click Show in View Panel. 2. To change the color scheme, click on More in the Legend and select between Blue Red and Blue Purple. |
