Cyclone Separator with Particle Separation: Exercise 7—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.
