Results and Postprocessing

This document discusses post-processing options in CFD software including: - Visualizing results through cut planes, cut lines, isosurfaces, and other options. - Working with data sets to choose the desired geometric level and entities for results. - Getting derived values like integrating variables over geometric entities and evaluating variables at points. - Creating cross-section plots using cut lines and cut planes to view results. - Revolving 2D solutions to 3D. - Exporting results for use in spreadsheets.
