My data is x,y,z,w. How can I create a 3D contour plot of it?

1 次查看(过去 30 天)
I have a tab delimited text file (see attached) that has x,y,z data from a design of experiments sweep and the output variable is w.
I tried using this:
fidi=fopen('DOE sweep1A.txt', 'rt'); % version of text file without headers
D=textscan(fidi, %f%f%f%f');
X=D{1}; % rpm
Y=D{2}; % m_dot
Z=D(3); % P
W=D{4); % Power
N=100;
Xi=linspace(min(X),max(X),N);
Yi=linspace(min(Y),max(Y),N);
Zi=linspace(min(Z),max(Z),N);
[Gx,Gy,Gz]=meshgrid(Xi,Yi,Zi);
Wi=griddata(X, Y, Z, W, Gx, Gy, Gz, 'natural');
contour(Gx, Gy, Gz, Wi, 'Linestyle', '-', 'Linecolor', [0 0 0], 'ShowText', 'on', 'LevelStep', 1)
grid on
colormap(jet)
colorbar;
And I know that it doesn't work because it can only have 2 dimensions and also that there are repeating numbers for X, Y, and Z because it is a design of experiments sweep.
But I would still want to plot this preferably in a 3D contour plot.
Is there a way to do so?
Thanks.

Yours is a volumetric data, not a surface data. What you expect?

I didn't expect anything from it.
I was just recycling an old solution that I got from here and tried to use it for a new problem.

You might want to experiment with isosurface(). You might want to ask it to draw at several different surface levels

We can't say, as you have not defined your desired output in any useful way. What would you expect a "3d contour plot" to look like? Do you have an example plot?

It is a good question. He wants to do output of surf.m with three coords but instead of colored contours wants lines. Not a hard concept.
surf(X,Y,Z,C) but instead of C you have contour intervals.

Hi John,
I have a similar problem recently. The figure you showed above is right what I need. Could you please share the code or tell more detail about how to draw it? Much appreciated.
