FLOW-3D Water Depth Averaged Plot is used in conjunction with
Water Depth Calculation to visualize two-dimensional flow characteristics including water depth, water level, Velocity Component U (X- Direction), Velocity Component V (Y- Direction). A data file loaded in Tecplot should include Coordinate X, Coordinate Y, Bathymetry, Water Depth, Water Level, U, V and Velocity Magnitude of U and V. It can also be used to create contour maps for source data files with the same data format.

- Compatible with: Tecplot 360 2006 R2, Tecplot 360 2008 -- Windows only
Installation
- Download and extract WaterDepthPlot.zip.
- Copy the files to the Tecplot directory.
Tecplot 360 2006 R2:
- copy FLOW3D_WaterDepthPlot.dll to %TEC360HOME%\bin (i.e. C:\Program Files\Tecplot\Tec360\bin).
- copy Help for Flow3D Water Depth Plot.html and its subdirectory to %TEC360HOME%\help
- copy FLOW3D_WaterDepthPlot.dll to %TEC_360_2008%\bin (i.e. C:\Program Files\Tecplot\Tec360 2008\bin).
- copy Help for Flow3D Water Depth Plot.html and its subdirectory to %TEC_360_2008%\help
- Add
the following line to the "tecplot.add" file in the Tecplot home directory:
$!LoadAddon "FLOW3D_WaterDepthPlot"
- Launch Tecplot;
- In the Tools menu, you will see a new command option, FLOW3D Water Depth Plot:
How to Use
- Select Tools/ FLOW3D-Water Depth Plot (Figure 2) and a user interface will show up:
- Click Read Data and Create Zones to load data from the selected data
file to Tecplot, and then Zone(s) information and variable(s)
information will be presented;
- Set minimum water depth in order to mark dry area and Click Update Dataset to change data values if necessary;
- Click OK to exit the user interface;
- Set coordinate system to 2D Cartesian;
- Set contour plots or vector plots.
