I am Urvi Mehta, a student pursuing Aerospace Engineering. I wanted to know the geometry dimensions of the cone from the course “Shock Expansion Theory” under the “Simulation example : Wedge vs Cone", please.

If you download the files you can use the tools in Fluent to find out. 

[Urvi Mehta]

That is right. But, there is only a .msh file which is the meshing file that cannot be viewed in the meshing section. It is directly imported to the setup part. I can't get the dimensions.

[Rob]

I suggest you have a look at the post processing options in Fluent. 

[Urvi Mehta]

Alright. Thank you. I had another question. Is it possible to convert the first picture into a second picture? If, yes, then could you please tell me how?

 

[Rob]

Yes, have a look in Views>Camera (or Views) you should see a symmetry option. That'll mirror the image based on the axis/symmetry you tell it.
