helper.plot_function(mesh: Mesh, values: array, title: str, file_name: str, transparent: bool, enabled: bool) → None

To generate a contour plot for a given mesh.

Parameters:

• mesh (parser.Mesh) – Mesh file consisting of information imported from the mesh.

• values (array) – Nodal values of the field parameter, i.e. temperature.

• title (str) – Title to be given to the plots.

• file_name (str) – Name of the output file.

• transparent (bool) – To generate plots with transparent background or not.

• enabled (bool) – Switch to enable or disable plotting.
