Hi,
I have a question{simple to think but seems almost impossible for me to do this task}.
I am dealing with complex microchannel flow analysis. As an example, I wish to consider a 'L' shaped channel and would like to plot data of a field as a continuous field from inlet to outlet.
I can plot data individually for both straight sections but how can I plot them together?
Its also fine if I can plot them individually and combine the results into one plot as a continuous data.
I use OpenFOAM and I can output the data but I need to analyze the capillary pressure which varies at the interface over a very short distance and is dynamic.
So, any ideas over this?

Have you tried plot over line filler in ParaView? It should do the trick using two lines and then the data could be combined and plotted using any software.
Another solution is sampling utility in OpenFOAM
Thanks Hassan;
I could group the data into one data set. Still not able to plot it considering the grouped data set as one entity.
Once i grouped the data, i used the "Plot Data" filter but still it considers both sections individually but not continuously.
Yes for now I am extracting CSV format data and plotting but if something of this sort is already available in ParaView it would save quite some time.

I think if you have a L shape pipe, you could use plot over intersection curves to get your data. I am not very familiar with this part of paraview because I usually use gnuplot.
I would recommend using the `sample` utility to sample along both lines, write as CSV, import and append these with pandas, then plot using matplotlib. This process uses all open source software. As far as I know, ParaView doesn't give a whole lot of control over the plot styling, if you're looking to use these in publications.
