Even Vector Spacing in Tecplot 360 2020 R1

 

Tecplot 360 2020 R1 Release Highlights:

Tecplot 360 2020 R1 natively supports high-resolution monitors. The software has been updated to the Qt 5 GUI (graphical user interface) toolkit, which has support for retina displays and 4K monitors. Mac users will be especially happy about this!

Linux users exporting images in batch mode can take advantage of hardware-accelerated graphics, yielding faster image export. A 4.6x speedup was seen in hardware-rendering tests. Rendering speed when using software-rendering saw a 2.3x speedup due to a newer version of the Mesa software rendering library.

Understanding surface flow is now much easier. Tecplot 360 2020 R1 will auto-detect a no-slip surface (a surface with zero velocities). And it will query the neighboring volume data for velocities before drawing the surface restricted streamtraces.

Vectors can be distributed evenly, making the flow easier to understand. This is especially helpful when grids are adaptive or irregular. Instead of displaying a vector at each node (too dense) or skipping nodes (still too dense in some areas and too sparse in others), vectors can have an even distribution which makes the flow much easier to see and understand.

“This release represents the most significant change to our graphical user interface (GUI) architecture in six years. The addition of native support for high-resolution monitors gives Mac users, and those with retina displays and 4k monitors a whole new meaning to visualizing their results,” says Product Manager Scott Fowler.
