I want to use contourf function to plot 2d velocity data

32 次查看(过去 30 天)
I have the x,y and corersponding velocity components u and v as a matrix data. I want to use this matrix data to plot a contour of velocity.
I went tried already using the Matlab database but I don't get epected results. It is hard to interpret the code given in the database, do if anyone can help to relate the code with the velocity data I have would be a big help.

Thanks for your reply,
can I apply contourf if I have a a total velocity magnitude matrix dpendent on X&Y. I want to produce results similar to the picture I have attached.

Without the data themselves to work with, the only suggestion I have is to create a vector from ‘u’ and ‘v’ using the hypot function. It is relatively straightforward to interpolate ‘x’, ‘y’, and the resulting magnitude vector created by hypot to matrices to use with contourf.

Let u,v be your velcity matrices.
w = sqrt(u.^2+v.^2) ;
figure(1)
pcolor(x,y,w) ; % if throws error, transpose w
colorbar
shading interp
figure(2)
contourf(x,y,w)

It should show you arrow plots on pcolor. Attach your data and code.
