Paraview data range

Post by bptsj »

I'm very new to ParaView and am using it for output from Elmer. I'm loading a file case001.vtu and do see the mesh structure along with a 'temperature' data label. However the data range is [0 322] which is incorrect. In other post processors the true range [322.0 349.79] is displayed.

Any thoughts as to what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,

Brian

Hi,

try to "Edit color map". You find it under the "Display" tab in the Object Inspector. Note that there is a ParaView mailing list where the real gurus are...

HTH,

Hi

I think that you run the ResultOutputSolver before the actual solver. Either put the "Exec Solver" flag to "After all" (Solver specific options), for example. Or in ElmerGUI choose a lower priority (default is zero) for ResultOutputSolver to give it a higher Solver index.

Thank you peter! That was it...

Under the Equation->Result Output tab I needed to select Active but also Edit Solver Settings and click on 'After Simulation'.
