Vectors (HedgeHog, Arrows)
|
Active, Opaque, Colorize | Decide about the visibility, colorizing and transparency of glyphs |
Style | The representation of an glyph:
Remark: Rendering details of arrow glyphs are set within application settings. |
Scale | The size (length) of the glyph shall scale by magnitude
(vector norm) the
active vector field . The
normalized magnitude is then scaled by the factor given. Remark: Scaling the normalized magnitude means, that the maximum value within the vector magnitude field is 1.0. |
Fixed length | The size (length) of the glyph shall be exactly the value given (in millimetres). |
Mesh points at:
|
The position of vector glyphs is defined either by the
intersection of the three slice planes
Slice-X / Slice-Y / Slice-Z or at a regular mesh of points along the Line
X,Y or Z, the slice plane X,Y or Z or throughout the whole volume.
Remark: The setting "Volume" in combination with too dense mesh might result in display of too much information to be interpreted. |
Mesh Distance | The name of the space from which the streamlines shall be
drawn Remark: The resulting number of mesh points is limited by following criteria: 500 intervals at each axis direction; total maximum of 100.000 points. |
Remark: When surface humidity is selected as active function (panel General), glyphs are coloured grey only, because the function of surface humidity is defined at component's surface only.
Remark: Because starting points for the glyphs exist within model's interior only it
is advisable to either turn the view of the
component's surface
completely off or show it partially transparent (i.e.
not opaque) or show it as
wireframe only.
The tooltip of the tab will show up if the surface
obscures objects rendered within the interior of the model.
Remark: Glyphs will not be placed within regions of stagnation (flux <10e-17).
