Abstract
Turbulent reacting flows can be studied using different numerical simulations and mathematical models. These methods usually require discretization of input data and output is also typically reported in discrete form. Our clients from Computational Multiphase Transport Lab (CMTL) who focus in turbulent flows would like us to preserve the continuity of the data and find a way to display the spectral information (polynomial coefficients) for different variables such as density, pressure and velocity at the same time. We have approached the problem using Omegalib to generate a point cloud model for each variable and 2D representation of the dataset to directly compare numerically and find correlation among the variables.
