[Paraview] Display velocity in paraview

[Armin Wehrfritz]

This should be fairly straight forward once you have a reader for your 
data. Hence the first questions that comes up:
In which file format is the data stored?

ParaView has a large selection of readers for all kinds of file formats, 
ranging from simple text files (i.e. CSV files) to advanced HPC file 
formats like XDMF. See here:

I personally prefer writing my data in XDMF/HDF5 files, for which 
ParaView has a very good reader.

For custom, but still simple, file formats also the "Python Programmable 
Filter" might be an option. Google will give you several examples for that.
