Tecplot Talk

Hi, I've written a 2d non-dimensioned cfd code and it outputs velocity u,v and pressure. The pressure given is the gauge pressure. When I try to obtain entropy and pressure coefficient, it complains that pressure must be greater than 0. Is it possible to modify in tecplot in order to get the answers...

Hi, I'm trying to read/write plt file in parallel using MPI. I wonder if it is possible. My data are separated into each region belonging to each processor. How should I call TecIni110,TecZne110? Should they be called by 1 processor or all processors? I believe for tecdat110, I just need to read/wri...

Hi, I need to change my current vorticity plots from color to black and white. This is because I need to print them out with a mono-laserjet printer. If I just print as it is, it'll be difficult to differentiate between the blue and red in black n white. Is there any solution to this? Thank you very...

Hi, Supposed I want to create 2 pentagons in 3d. I can create 2 zones with jmax=5, imax=1, kmax=1, itot =5 with the coordinates of the 1st pentagon in zone 1 as px(1:5,1),py(1:5,1) and pz(1:5,1), while in zone 2 as px(1:5,2),py(1:5,2) and pz(1:5,2). however, what if I have 1000+ pentagons. I don't t...

Hi, I've got 4 zones which are transient data. Currently, at each time step, I loop through each zone and give each of them a particular strandid e.g. 1 to 4. However I found that when I load all the transient data, although I have no problem animating each zone. there are now many more zones. For e...

Hi, I have a transient data. It has a total of 37 zones. due to 37 strandid. I get different zone numbering if I load the files differently. 1. if i load the 1st time step file and subquently add files 1 by 1 using "add to current data", for e.g. if i 've 5 time steps, i'll get zones 1 to ...

Hi, May I know how does tecplot decide the color of the mesh of each zone? Why is it that on my comp, when I load multiple zones, tecplot automatically assigns different color to each mesh, giving a very colorful 3d plot. However, on my supervisor's comp, doing the same thing resulted in an all blac...

Hi, I've got a data which I need to show 2 things: 1. brightness lvl, using contours. in greyscale 2. velocity vectors, using multi-1, color. I believe it allows me to show the vectors using different colors, with the different values assigned different colors. I have 2 problems when I try to do thi...

Hi, I have data with many zones and variables. I need to create a rectangle zone using CREATERECTANGULARZONE based on zone 18. When doing it manually, Tecplot is smart enough to choose the max/min values of the x,y,z in zone 18. So when using marco, is this possible as well? When I record the macro,...
