How to project "arrow surface" in a "cut plane" in Comsol

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi everyone,

I did simulation of flow in a 3D geometry in COMSOL and I generated a cut plane somewhere in the geometry where I want to see the velocity vectors in that plane. In order to do that, first I used "Arrow surface" and made the velocity vectors. However, I need to have the component of the velocity vectors which is on the surface of my plane. Do you have any idea how to do that?

Thanks!

You could subtract off the projection onto the normal.
