The gradient values are released from memory after being used in the plot calculation and thus cannot be accessed; however, some variables, such as Static Temperature will still be able to be accessed afterwards by executing the following text command: &#8220;solve\/set\/expert&#8221; and answering \u2018Yes\u2019 to the prompt \u201cKeep temporary solver memory from being freed?\u201d.  In addition, immediately after displaying the contour plot of your desired variable, in the Contours dialog box, under the \u2018Contours of\u2019 dropdown menu, select Adaption\u2026, then Adaption Space Gradient, then click Display.  This will display the spatial gradient of the variable plotted immediately before.<\/p>\n<p>Attachments:<br \/>\n1. <a href=https:\/\/ansys13.ansys.com\/KnowledgeArticles\/Phase-1\/2042173\/2042173.pdf>2042173.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-166053","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-fluent","topic-tag-fluent-post-processing","topic-tag-fluid-dynamics","topic-tag-generic"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_wp_page_template":["default"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["3-15-2023  20:20:49"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27796"],"_bbp_author_ip":["23.56.168.180"],"_btv_view_count":["11750"],"siebel_km_number":["2042173"],"product_version":[""],"km_published_date":["2016-05-03T02:06:17.000Z"],"family":["Fluid Dynamics"],"application_name":["FLUENT"]},"test":"solution"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/166053","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\/166053\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=166053"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
