Streamline pair selection for comparative flow field visualization

摘要

Fluid dynamics simulation is often repeated under varying conditions.This leads to a generation of large amounts of results,which are difficult to compare.To compare results under different conditions,it is effective to overlap the streamlines generated from each condition in a single three-dimensional space.Streamline is a curved line,which represents a wind flow.This paper presents a technique to automatically select and visualize important streamlines that are suitable for the comparison of the simulation results.Additionally,we present an implementation to observe the flow fields in virtual reality spaces.
