The Advanced button in the Streamlines Settings area of the Streamlines panel opens the Advanced Options dialog. Here you can change a number of parameters which control how the streamlines are generated. These settings will affect all rakes.

Integration method

Runge-Kutta2: Second order Runge-Kutta integration scheme.

Integration step length

Element-fraction: Fraction of local element size to be used as the step length for integration.

Decimation criteria

(used to reduce the memory consumption)

Decimation: Activate this checkbox to enable streamline decimation.

Max break angle: Maximum break angle (in degrees) between consecutive streamline segments.

Max speed variation: Maximum variation of speed (in percentage of the average vector field over the domain) between consecutive streamline segments.

Max line segment length: Maximum streamline segment length in percentage of bounding box size.

Termination criteria

Max length: Maximum length of a single streamline.

Max number of steps: Maximum number of integration steps for a single streamline.

Terminate speed: Terminates the streamline integration if the speed is smaller than the percentage of the average vector (velocity) field over the domain.

Delete Streamlines

Deletes any existing streamlines for the selected rakes from the model.
