If you know the x,y,z coordinates of the location you want to investigate, you can create a volume with the option ,\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Sphere\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, centered on this point with an appropriate radius. Choosing the method, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Intersection\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, will show the elements intersecting the surface of the defined sphere. The method, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Below Intersection\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, will show all the elements within the sphere. The elements are best viewed by coloring the faces, and showing the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Lines\u00e2\u20ac\u009d (enabled on the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Render\u00e2\u20ac\u009d toggle).  If you want to see the elements on a plane, do the following:  1. Create the plane  2. Create a volume with the option \u00e2\u20ac\u0153From Surface\u00e2\u20ac\u009d and select the plane.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-164657","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-4424","topic-tag-cfd-post","topic-tag-fluid-dynamics","topic-tag-general"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_wp_page_template":["default"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["3-15-2023  20:20:44"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27796"],"_bbp_author_ip":["23.56.168.180"],"_btv_view_count":["915"],"siebel_km_number":["458883"],"product_version":["16"],"km_published_date":["2005-12-07T00:00:00.000Z"],"family":["Fluid Dynamics"],"application_name":["CFD-Post"]},"test":"articlesansys-com"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/164657","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/164657\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=164657"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
