:This command is useful for comparing the solutions from two separate simulations from different meshes. For example, if two simulations have been performed with slightly different meshes (base vs. plan) it may be useful to generate iso-surfaces or a fringe plot showing the difference between the solutions. It is possible to generate a dataset representing the difference between two datasets using the data calculator. However, the two datasets must be associated with the same mesh before the data calculator can be used. The datasets from one of the meshes can be transferred to the other mesh as follows: | :This command is useful for comparing the solutions from two separate simulations from different meshes.
