error size regarding contour plot

5 views (last 30 days)
I wan to plot a contour by using this code:
fileName = 'Simulation.txt';
nPitch = 202;
nTSR = 250;
%% Read in text file
fileID = fopen(fileName);
raw = textscan(fileID, '%f%f%f%f%f%f%f%f%f%f', 'Headerlines', 7);
fclose(fileID);
pitch = raw{3};
TSR = raw{7};
Cp = raw{8};
Ct = raw{8};
%% Re-arrange data
pitch = pitch(1:nPitch); % use individual values only
TSR = TSR(1:nPitch:end); % use individual values only
Cp = reshape(Cp, nPitch, nTSR, 1); % transform vector into matrix
Ct = reshape(Ct, nPitch, nTSR, 1); % transform vector into matrix
disp(pitch)
It seems number of unique value of pitch and TSR is wrong and this error appears:
Error using reshape Number of elements must not change. Use [] as one of the size inputs to automatically calculate the appropriate size for that dimension. Error in pitch_tsr_cp (line 23) Cp = reshape(Cp, nPitch, nTSR, 1); % transform vector into matrix
as I checked file also in excel I have 250 uniqe TSR value amd 202 pitch uniqe value.

hello
it would help if you could share the data file as well
maybe you need to zip it if it's too big (limit = 5 Mb)

hello
I believe this is what you wanted to do
I don't see why you needed the reshape action
unzip('Simulation.zip');
fileName = 'Simulation.txt';
% WIND [m/s] ROT [rpm] PITCH [deg] POWER [kW] THRUST [N] TORQUE [Nm] TSR [-] CP [-] CT [-] CM [-]
% Read in text file
data = readmatrix(fileName);
pitch = (data(:,3));
TSR = (data(:,7));
Cp = (data(:,8));
Ct = (data(:,9));
figure(1),
scatter3(TSR,pitch,Cp,10,Cp,'filled')
% Interpolate the scattered data on the grid. Plot the results.
N = 100;
xd = linspace(min(TSR),max(TSR),N);
yd = linspace(min(pitch),max(pitch),N);
[xq,yq] = meshgrid(xd,yd);
zq = griddata(TSR,pitch,Cp,xq,yq);
Warning: Duplicate data points have been detected and removed - corresponding values have been averaged.
figure(2),
contour(xq,yq,zq,'ShowText','on')
grid on
colorbar('vert')
