Vancouver Harbour

An FE depth grid of Vancouver Harbour, along with a bathymetric chart of the western portion of the harbour. The coordinates in the Tecplot file are UTM (metres); the image is in pixels.

Mach 2 Missile Simulation

The top portion of the plot is a simulated Schlieren, made with flooded contours of density gradient magnitude. The bottom half is a simulated Shadowgraph, made with flooded contours of the Shadowgraph function (LaPlacian of Density). Both Shadowgraph and Schlieren capabilities are in CFD Analyzer.

Snow Accumulation

A net snow accumulation/ablation map for one set of climatic conditions that could have created the Cascade Canyon glacier.

Diesel Engine Test Results

Duct

A plot of an axisymmetric duct internal to a high speed engine. The duct turns fuel from the turbine exit into a hot gas manifold that guides the flow into the main combustion chamber.

Groundwater Flow

Vertical profile of a 3-D complex multi-aquifer groundwater flow model showing log hydraulic conductivity distribution (red, orange and green = sand; blue = clay), numerical grid, simulated hydraulic heads and water table position.

Group Velocity

Contour plots of group velocity as predicted by various finite element formulations of scalar wave equation in 2-D.

Heat Exchange

Heatflow Simulation

Simulated temperature distribution within a fractured aquifer system.

Hydraulic Slice

Solar Wind

The Sun creates a buzz-like bubble of supersonic solar wind that rams into the interstellar medium. This babble is called the heliosphere and defines the edge of the solar system.

Lake Pontchartrain Estuarine System

Geographic and Bathymetric Features of the Lake Pontchartrain Estuarine System.

New Zealand Tide

This plot shows the way tidal data are usually portrayed with a cotidal chart. Draughtsmen plotted them by hand before NIWA began using Tecplot. Amplitude is shown as colored contours, and phase are displayed as lines. In New Zealand, where the tide is so complicated, it is difficult to absorb all the information in a cotidal chart. However, in a Tecplot animation information becomes abundantly clear.

Black Smoker

This image is from a numerical simulation of a Mid-Atlantic "Black Smoker" hydrothermal vent. The plot shows the temperature field and fluid flow directions within the fractured ocean crust. A hot magma source at a depth of 2 km below the ocean floor heats the fluid to about 400 degrees C. Due to thermal buoyancy, the fluid rises, bringing cooler seawater in from the boundary flanks. The vertical gray lines, 500m apart, represent fluid-filled fractures within the crust.

The term "Black Smoker" is derived from the precipitation of dark sulphide minerals where the hot fluid within the primary fracture zone discharges to the cold seawater. The simulations can be compared to observed thermal gradients along the sea floor, thereby inferring subsurface structure.

Dynamic Placeholders

Dynamic text allows Tecplot to update text on your plot to display information from your current data set (such the data set title, or the maximum value of a contour variable), or from your system (such as the date, or the platform being used).

Two-dimensional water flow through unsaturated (vadoze) heterogeneous porous media having various properties.
