FLOWPLOT II: a fluid dynamics and heat transfer plotting package

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5818622
The FLOWPLOT II plotting program may be used with numerical or analytical fluid dynamics codes to create velocity vector plots, contour plots of up to three fluid parameters (e.g. pressure, density, and temperature), and two-dimensional profile plots, three-dimensional curve plots, and/or three-dimensional surface plots for either the u or v velocity components. FLOWPLOT II reads a data set written by the user's fluid dynamics code. This data set must contain parametric data at every nodal point of a uniform or non-uniform rectangular grid. FLOWPLOT II uses the DISSPLA (Display Integrated Software System and Plotting Language) graphics package. The user has the option of generating plots on CALCOMP or Versatec plotters, creating a compressed plot data set which can be plotted on various plotting devices, or generating plots on microfiche. An object module of FLOWPLOT II is available for execution on the IBM 3033 system at ORNL and on the IBM 360/195 system at ORGDP. This version of FLOWPLOT II is also available on the PDP-10 system at ORNL and can be used by personal computers running under a graphics terminal emulator.
