Clipping planes are another tool to reveal hidden regions of your Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) results.

CFD Simulation of an Air MultiplierVelocity iso-surfaces after using XYZ-clipping planes

Clipping planes, aligned with the three coordinate axes, can be used to interactively trim back your simulation to reveal hidden internal details.

Iso-Surfaces Before Using Clipping Planes

Each coordinate direction supports two planes for a total of six planes in a view to precisely localize the view of your results.
