Here are instructions on how to import a surface CSV file from Stallion 3D into ParaView
using the Point Dataset Interpolator:
In Stallion 3D
- Export the computational fluids dynamics (CFD) surface data as a CSV file
- Export the volume data also as a CSV file
- Export the STL file
Open ParaView.
- Click "File" > "Open".
- Navigate to your CSV file and select it.
- Click "OK".
Convert CSV to points:
- In the "Pipeline Browser", click on the CSV file.
- -Click "Filters" > "Alphabetical" > "Table To Points".
- -Set "X Column", "Y Column", and "Z Column" to the appropriate column names in your CSV file.
- Click " OK".
Load the target surface mesh:
- Click "File" > "Open".
- Navigate to your surface STL file and select it.
- Click "OK".
Apply Point Dataset Interpolator:
- Click on the "Table To Points" output in the "Pipeline Browser".
- Click "Filters" > "Alphabetical" > "Point Dataset Interpolator".
- Set "Source" to the target surface mesh.
- Set "Input" to the "Table To Points" output.
- Click "Apply".
5. Visualize:
- Click on the "Point Dataset Interpolator" output in the "Pipeline Browser".
- The interpolated data should now be mapped onto the surface mesh.
- Use ParaView's rendering and visualization options to create the desired visual representation.
