Getting rid of hemispherical smoke heads? - emil_vfx - 07-13-2007

Hello evreyone!

I simulate some smoke being blown out of a tube, using the Simple Src. Unfortunatelly I alwas have these typical hemispherical mushroom-alike heads in front of the smoke stuff itself and I cannot get rid of it despite all the tweaking. How can I remove that?

Thank you!

Hello,

You can try to put a bigger source behind original, that will only serve to create wind and initiate some motion in the grid.
Tricks like that should make a difference.

If I've understood your problem, you can also animate the emission from the source.
In fact, I think the temperature is the cause of that initial mushroom shape.
Animate on a few frames the smoke density from 0 to your desired value, and do the same for the temperature.
