Lagrangian Data Visualization using ParaView

This training material of the NanoSim project nicely summarizes how to use ParaView effectively to visualize large Lagrangian data set efficiently. Note, this page also contains instructions to load data from the popular particle dynamics code LAMMPS/LIGGGHTS.

Data inspection and further case details

In these videos

• part1
• part 2

you will find details on how results are written out in OpenFOAM. You will gain knowledge about the structure of the results and how to evaluate them during post processing. You will also learn about additional simulation setting, which can improve your simulation results. The focus is on:

• simulation output
• understanding the simulation results of OpenFOAM
• sampling data
• a summary of scientific visualization of results in ParaView
• additional detailed case information
