A streamline is a curve that is instantaneously tangent to the
velocity vector of the flow, and a stream is a set of streamlines that enable
you to visualize the velocity or vorticity data in a fluid flow analysis. The
Stream toolset
is available only in
the Visualization module.
This chapter explains how to use the
Stream toolset
to create, modify, and delete streams; display or hide them in the viewport;
and customize several aspects of their appearance.
