Plot particle density

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello everyone,
As attached, it is my particle tracing result, but the color expression seems to be the particles’ velocity. Does anyone know how to plot the particle density as the color expression? I didn't find this kind of expression in “Replace Expression”.

Thank you very much in advance!

I am also interested in that. Defined a Wall in front of my release as particle counter. Now it would be nice to plot the geometry with an overlay of particle density.

thanks for any comments

Hi Christoph, the number of particles per unit volume can be computed using an Accumulator. See my colleague's blog for some more information:

My recent blog on counting particles may also be of interest:
