Contours

The most common contours for the VOF-tank filling simulation are the pressure and the velocity contours across the domain. The steps to create contours are:

1. Click Load Results in the Simulation Panel.
2. Select the required result file in the ensuing Load Results dialog box, click Open.

Create a section

A section is created with the following steps.

1. Click Create a Cross-Section icon  in the Geometric Entities Panel. A new section Section 01 is created under Derived Surfaces.
2. Select Section 01, the Type and Position are specified as Plane Y and -2.6149971 m in the Geometry Tab of Properties Panel.

Volume Fraction Contours

1. Select Section 01 under Derived Variables in the Geometric Entities Panel.
2. Select Component fuel under Variables list for the Variable drop-down list in the Results Panel. For variables and legends refer, Post-Processing.
