Extract points from line graph?

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello everyone,


I am simulating flow (2D) in a straight, rectangular channel and to get a velocity profile I have made a vertical cut line in the channel. However, is it possible to get the exact data from certain points in this cut line? Say, 5, 10 and 15 cm from one of the channel edges, placed on the cut line I have made?

I know I can use the mouse to get points from the 2D surface, but I want the data in specific points.

Does anybody have any ideas?

Regards,

Maria

Hi

if you have the coordinates, its better to create a sub-set of your data set at these points, and export that (to a file or to a "table" and then via a plot or a Cut&Paste.

Do not forget to tweak the polynomial interpolation, if you are not already happy with the default

Good luck

Hello,

Thanks, that worked just fine!

How do I tweak the polynomial interpolation?

Hi

somwhere in the lower tabs of the Plot and/or extraction GUI window
