[Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Rotate 2d plane into 3d

[Moreland, Kenneth]

Does the Rotational Extrusion filter do what you want?  (You'll have to convert your data to polydata if necessary first.  You'll also have to transform the data as the rotational extrusion only rotates around the Z axis.)

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Paraview] Rotate 2d plane into 3d

I'm solving a problem that can be simplified into a bidimensional problem. The problem is the estimation of the wear line of a blast furnace hearth.
I want to "rotate" my bidimensional solution around the axis to generate a 3d figure. The figures will help you guys to understand.

The following figure shows the temperature map of a radial section of the hearth.

The next figure shows an idea of what I want to do:

This figure was generated with the rotation filter. I used the filter 4 times and have changed the orientation of each one, just to show the idea
of the final result that I want. The 3d figure should be something like a cylinder. It's like an interpolation of the rotation of the bidimensional
figure around the center axis.

Anyone knows how can I do that?
