Abstract

The paper considers an important problem of 3D visualization of the results of CFD simulations on large scale meshes as well as the preprocessing of the original data to the developed format. The amount of data resulting from the modeling is often so large that the interactive visualization of simulation results is impossible without employing specialized means for data representation and storage. Problems coming to the fore are the converting of origin files of results into proposed format, data filtering, providing direct access to required blocks, and the minimization data read operations and network traffic. A technology is proposed for the 3D visualization of scalar fields on arbitrary meshes containing about 109 nodes. The technology includes data storage format and the tools for conversion of original mesh; client-server architecture of visualization application; the protocol of interaction between client and server. The technology allows fixing data bandwidth during file read operations, to minimize the number of read operations and the amount of data transferred over network for the visualization of each scene frame.
