What variables are shown under the information tab of the object inspector when the gradient of unstructured grids filter is selected? If nothing is listed there, what about the filter before that and what field are you using in the gradient filter?<br>

For computing vorticity, depending on the grid type you can also use the Gradient of Unstructured Datasets filter. There is an option to compute vorticity for 3 component arrays (i.e. velocity). It works on both point data and cell data and the output will be the same type of field data. I'm about to change this filter so that it will work with all types of VTK grids.<br>

The output from the ComputeDerivatives is Cell Data. To do those<br>
things, you want to make it Point Data with another<br>
CellDataToPointData filter.<br>
<br>
The calculator would see it if you changed it from point data to<br>
cell data. But since you want to do other stuff with it, add the<br>
interpolation filter again and then it will appear with the rest<br>
of your point data.<br>

The display has the vorticity now. I would like to do magnitituse vorticity contours but the contour menu does not show the vorticity. Show I used the calculator to create a scalar vortmag.The contour menu does not show the vortmag. What must I do to visualise vortmag?<br>
Thanks for your help,<br>

Works correctly but what must I do to:<br>
1 make a vector or contour plot<br>
2 tracer plot or vorticity lines (like streamlines) plot?<br>
The choice for these is only the velocity field that I read.<br>
Calculator does not see the vorticity vector that was created.<br>
Thanks for you help,<br>
