34.11.2 Turbo/Averaged Contours...

The Turbo/Averaged Contours... menu item opens the Turbo Averaged Contours dialog box.

Turbo Averaged Contours Dialog Box

The Turbo Averaged Contours dialog box allows you display turbomachinery-specific circumferentially averaged contours of variables projected on an $r$- $z$ plane. See Section  29.10.3 for details.

Controls

Turbo Topology   contains a list of defined topologies. Select from the list to display the values for the selected topology.

Options   contains the check buttons that set various contour display options.

Filled   toggles between filled contours and line contours.

Auto Range   toggles between automatic and manual setting of the contour range. Any time you change the Contours of selection, Auto Range is reset to on.

Clip to Range   determines whether or not values outside the prescribed Min/ Max range are contoured when using Filled contours. If selected, values outside the range will not be contoured. If not selected, values below the Min value will be colored with the lowest color on the color scale, and values above the Max value will be colored with the highest color on the color scale. See Section  29.1.2 for details.

Levels   sets the number of contour levels that are displayed.

Setup   indicates the ID number of the contour setup. For frequently used combinations of contour fields and options, you can store the information needed to generate the contour plot by specifying a Setup number and setting up the desired information in the dialog box. See Section  29.1.2 for details.

Contours of   contains a list from which you can select the scalar field to be contoured.

Min   shows the minimum value of the scalar field. If Auto Range is off, you can set the minimum by typing a new value.

Max   shows the maximum value of the scalar field. If Auto Range is off, you can set the maximum by typing a new value.

Domain Min   shows the global minimum value of the scalar field for the entire domain.

Domain Max   shows the global maximum value of the scalar field for the entire domain.

Display   draws the contours in the active graphics window.

Compute   calculates the scalar field and updates the Min and Max values (even when Auto Range is off).
