Hello,

I'm doing aerodynamic analysis. I create the pressure contour. Is it normal for the values ​​on the pressure scale to change when I change the number # of Contours?

[Rob]

Min/max or the ones in between?  

[Fatih 1122]

All change 30-100 Pa

[Fatih 1122]

all values ​​on the pressure scale are changing

[Rob]

Please can you post some screen shots. Contour and the Panel settings used.

OK, look at the min/max on the Contour panel, they're all the same. Also, look closely at the scale on the image. The lower value is the same and ties up with the settings panel; the upper value is different but it's also not the final value on the scale.  So, nothing wrong with the results, it's just a difficult option to spot. 

Check with Contour 2 alone, having two picked at once in the display can do odd things. If you're using Fluent, do the post processing there. 

As an aside, avoid spaces in filenames, directory structures, boundary conditions etc. It's good practice when dealing with engineering software as many codes are UNIX based so may not like spaces or other "odd" characters ( " £ $ { ] ) etc.   Hyphen - and underscore _ are valid.

Thanks a lot

You're welcome. Good spot on the scale though, most wouldn't have noticed or questioned the difference.
