New: $200.

Renewal: $100.

Order:

Tecplot may be requested from the College of Engineering Software ordering site.

Software Overview:

Tecplot is used by engineers and scientists who need to create a wide range of high-quality plots from simple XY plots to sophisticated 3-D plots from data sets of up to millions of data points. Many Tecplot users are post-processing data created by finite-difference and finite-element numerical simulations of physical processes like fluid dynamics, geophysics, structural dynamics, and electromagnetics.

Tecplot aids engineers and scientists in doing analyses, simulations, or experiments, and helps them explore their data and produce informative 2- and 3-D graphical representations of their data. Tecplot can also create presentation-quality plots and animations and prepare plots for the Web.

Tecplot 360:

Explore and understand complex simulation data with one visualization tool.
Quickly plot and animate all your data exactly the way you want with Tecplot 360. Analyze complex data, arrange multiple layouts, and communicate your results with professional images and animations.

Tecplot Chorus:

Chorus is included as part of Tecplot 360.
Manage and analyze collections of CFD solutions, and compare them in a single environment.
Optimize your design, analyze the operating envelope, and investigate engineering problems with Tecplot Chorus by pre-computing the plots and facilitating downstream analysis.

Tecplot Focus:

Plot and animate large amounts of complex testing data.
Quickly plot all your engineering and test data exactly the way you want. With Extensive XY, 2D and 3D capabilities, Tecplot Focus is designed for measured field data, performance plotting of test data, and mathematical analysis.

Tecplot RS:

For engineers and scientists who want a better understanding of reservoir model behavior.
Tecplot RS gives engineers the ability to manage and analyze simulation data, uncover knowledge about reservoir model behavior, and gain confidence in making crucial decisions.

License Details:

The UW site license is provided by the College of Engineering.

Tecplot is available at this site for many operating systems including Windows, Mac, HP, Sun, IBM and Linux.
