Hello,<\/p>\n

I have made a thermal history simulation for 17–4 PH. I visualized one VTK file using Paraview, as shown in the picture. There are two things that confuse me:<\/p>\n

1. I am expecting to see a molten pool (a circle with the 1mm default radius), but I do not see it clearly here. It should also have a varying temperature profile (maximum at the center and decreases a way from the center).<\/p>\n

2. If “Z” is the building direction, then we need to look at the XZ or YZ planes to see the penetration of the molten pool. But in Paraview, I can only look at the XY plane. Is there a way to visualize it from the XZ or YZ planes?<\/p>\n

Overall, I do not understand what this temperature profile represents in Paraview.<\/p>\n
