The visualization means "to make an invisible thing an visible thing", and "to make an visible thing an easily understandable thing. Widely, a clock which makes time a visible thing, and a speed meter which makes speed of a car an visible thing are a device of the visualization, however, in this book we introduce the image processing of the simulation result for the purpose of the confirmation, evaluation, and transmission of the simulation result. In this book we carefully explain the PC environment and the data conversion process for visualizatoin, the basic knowledge about computer graphics, the setting of visualization methods and their parameters, a role of the visualization in the numerical simulation, and a way of thinking of the visualization in the presentation.
