The Application of MATLAB in Computational Fluid Dynamic Visualization Processing

Abstract:

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is an important applied research area of scientific computation visualization. Aiming at the difficult for three-dimensional display in the post-processing of wrap-around fins’ flowfield with commercial CFD software, the visualization techniques of CFD were investigated. And a visualization program was compiled using by powerful graphic processing software of MATLAB. The results showed the visualization program can display three-dimension characteristic of pressure, temperature etc. on the surface of wrap-around fins accurately and visually.
