Hello,
When running a fluent case and sampling steady-state statistics, we obtain field variables that appear as SV\_U\_MEAN or SV\_U\_RMS (in the case of x-velocity) after having imported the cas.h5/dat.h5 file into paraview (5.13.1). However, I noticed that the range of those variables is nonsensical. As an example, here is the global range of the iteration-averaged x-velocity of a simple test case within fluent:
which is very similar to the instantaneous x-velocity at a particular iteration:
Now, when I load this into paraview I can see the following ranges:
in the case of SV\_U we see a difference, albeit a relatively small one. For SV\_U\_MEAN, however, the range is completely off.
Any idea what might cause this error?
