Flow visualization on unstructured grids using geometrical cuts, vortex detection and shock surfaces

In order to overcome the limitation of cutting planes for curved, branching geometries, new visualization techniques are presented. The basic idea is to compute surface cuts that “follow” the geometry of the computational domain. Procedures for the detection of vortex centerlines and shock surfaces operating on unstructured grids are also presented. Both schemes yield satisfactory results as illustrated in various examples.
