Hi

Pretty much everything in VTK is 3-D. Set your 3rd dimension to unity
and the z components of velocity to 0 - ie

# vtk DataFile Version 2.0
Grid
ASCII

DATASET STRUCTURED_POINTS
DIMENSIONS    69   69 1

ORIGIN    0.000   0.000 0
SPACING    1.000   1.000 0

POINT_DATA   4761
VECTORS vectors float

0.0000 0.0000 0
0.0000 0.0143 0
0.0000 0.0286 0
0.0000 0.0429 0
.
.
.

Cheers
