Niccolò,

1. Load your CFD results as normal.
2. Load your x,y,z dataset with the appropriate settings, demiliter,
header, etc.
3. Use the Table to Points filter on the x,y,z dataset, again selecting the
correct fields for the x, y and z data.
4. Select your CFD dataset and choose the Resample with Dataset filter.
    - The CFD dataset will be the Input and the Table to Points will the
Input
    - Now your data should be extracted at the selected points.
5. To plot the data, use the Plot Data filter.  You may need to first run a
Calculator filter to extract a coordinate component (x, y, or z) if you
want to use that as the abscissa.
