Fields

Types of fields

Pre/Post supports the following field types:

Formula fields

Formula fields let you use expressions to define the relationship between the independent and dependent domains.

Table fields

Table fields let you use tabular data to define the relationship between the independent and dependent domains.

Reference fields

Reference fields let you create fields from external results files.

Linked fields

Linked fields let you apply an existing field that is a spatial map to a different location.

Table of fields

Table of fields let you use a collection of fields to approximate a functional relationship where the independent domain has two or more variables.

The following figure shows a pressure distribution that is defined by a formula field that is a spatial map.
