flow

A simple function of three variables

Syntax

• v = flow
  v = flow(n)
  v = flow(x,y,z)
  [x,y,z,v] = flow(...)
  

Description

flow, a function of three variables, generates fluid-flow data that is useful for demonstrating slice, interp3, and other functions that visualize scalar volume data.

v = flow produces a 50-by-25-by-25 array.

v = flow(n) produces a 2n-by-n-by-n array.

v = flow(x,y,z) evaluates the speed profile at the points x, y, and z.

[x,y,z,v] = flow(...) returns the coordinates as well as the volume data.
