Fluid ow visualization for turbomachinery has been a major project at the SCSC visualization lab for the last few years. In this report, we introduce to the application area, state its special requirements regarding visualization and describe a system to meet them. This text assumes basic knowledge in ow visualization and discusses additional features and improvements of standard algorithms. The results have been implemented in the visualization program Flux for Silicon Graphics machines (using C, GL, Forms) for interactive visualization of turboma-chinery ows and video animations. Key elements are also implemented as a set of AVS modules.
