Hi. I’m currently trying to calculate the vorticity and the q-criterion using the “Gradient of Unstructured Data set” filter, with the velocity data set of a Cartesian grid, formatted as follows.
density u v w
value value value value
. . . .
. . . .
. . . .
. . . .
. . . .
. . . .
. . . .
I use the calculator filter and use
uiHat+vjHat+w*kHat
to construct my velocity factor, to which I apply the “Gradient of Unstructured Data set” filter.
From my online research, it should show me the “Compute vorticity” and “Compute QCriterion” options, but I do not see those options pop up when I select the filter. I’d appreciate it if you could let me know why I don’t see those options.
Thanks for you time.
