Tecplot 360 is the leading independent CFD post-processor on the market today. Our 2021 R2 release reaffirms our commitment to providing the best technical data visualization and analysis software available by providing quality of life improvements, performance enhancements, and new ways to manipulate your data and plots.

“The improvements in this release add up to ease-of-use and a big timesaving for our customers.” says Scott Fowler, Tecplot 360 Product Manager.

Quality of Life Improvements:

  1. Labelling a plot is more flexible with the ability for users to edit the contour legend header without editing the variable names. This update supports the inclusion of auxiliary data and other text modifiers supported by Tecplot 360.
  2. Users can now opt to show zones only at specified solution time, which ensures the correct zones are displayed.
  3. Support for logarithmic time scales has been added to correctly cluster solution time steps.
  4. Divide-by-zero errors can be ignored with a simple toggle during analysis.

Performance Improvements:

  1. Temporary disk storage usage has been reduced by 99.6%! This reduction has resulted in up to a 20% performance improvement when creating movies with transient data.
  2. Initializing contour levels for transient datasets with many zones consistently showed up to a 23.8x speedup over previous versions.

Loader Improvements:

  1. The Fluent CFF (HDF5) loader is supported on CentOS and RedHat7 and includes face-neighbor connections.
  2. The Plot3D loader treats function files as transient if they appear to have a time value in the file name.

Details of this release are on the Tecplot website.
