[Paraview] Visualising surface

[Moreland, Kenneth]

I guess that depends on how the sphere is represented in your CFD mesh.  Is there a "hole" in your CFD mesh where the sphere is that you cannot see when you render the mesh?  Or does the mesh go through the sphere, and is there some implicit field that defines where the sphere is?

Subject: [Paraview] Visualising surface

I am trying to visualize the flow past a sphere. I have exported my cfd solution to legacy VTK format ( cell based). I imported the same using paraview and plotted necessary streamlines but I cannot visualize the sphere surface. How do I visulise the streamline and sphere surface(together)

Can I use two data types in the same vtk file (unstructured mesh and ploydata)
Pls help
