Hi
maybe you can help me out with a right comment or hint for my problem.
Pretty easy, I would like to plot a 2D slice vtp file (OpenFOAM) via matplotlib as tricontourf plot.
1.) Creating the vtp slice by Paraview and saving as vtp file works like a charme
2.) Using the runtime vtp file, created by cuttingPlane - libsampling OpenFOAM creates a weird triangle order.
In the attachement you can find an example, including the plotting python script and the data loader.
What am I missing?
Best,
def loadVTPFile(filename):
import vtk
from vtk.util.numpy_support import vtk_to_numpy
from vtk.util import numpy_support as npvtk
reader = vtk.vtkXMLPolyDataReader()
reader.SetFileName(filename)
reader.Update()
data = reader.GetOutput()
points = data.GetPoints()
npts = points.GetNumberOfPoints()
x = vtk_to_numpy(points.GetData())
triangles= vtk_to_numpy(data.GetPolys().GetData())
ntri = triangles.size // 4 # number of cells
tri = np.take(triangles,[n for n in range(triangles.size) if n%4 != 0]).reshape(ntri,3)
n_arrays = reader.GetNumberOfPointArrays()
for i in range(n_arrays):
print(reader.GetPointArrayName(i))
X = vtk_to_numpy(points.GetData())
x=X[:,0]
y=X[:,1]
z=X[:,2]
# Define the velocity components U=(u,v,w)
U = vtk_to_numpy(data.GetPointData().GetArray('UMean'))
u = U[:,0]
v = U[:,1]
w = U[:,2]
magU=np.sqrt(u**2+v**2+w**2)
p = vtk_to_numpy(data.GetPointData().GetArray('pMean'))
Ma = vtk_to_numpy(data.GetPointData().GetArray('MaMean'))
rho = vtk_to_numpy(data.GetPointData().GetArray('rhoMean'))
return x,y,z,u,v,w,magU,p,Ma,rho,tri
