FluidX3D — von Kármán vortex street, headless GRAPHICS export
Same solver the benchmark event scores (2,834/2,787 MLUPs/s, D3Q19 FP16S) -- this
build flips GRAPHICS on instead of BENCHMARK and runs a real
simulation: flow past a cylinder in a duct (Re 25,000), flag wireframe + Q-criterion
isosurface coloured by velocity, no window/X11 (write_frame() straight to disk).

image digest: sha256:df05d4fb...dcd59f27 · FluidX3D commit aba9413 ·
own RESULT payload: 30 frames, 31/31 uploaded, 16 s wall ·
geometry/flow parameters copied verbatim from upstream's own "cylinder in rectangular duct"
example; the GRAPHICS export loop is new, adapted from upstream's "Boeing 747" example (the
one pattern in setup.cpp written for headless export) ·
first attempt (execution fluidx3d-viz-6dj82) produced near-blank frames -- a hand-picked
free-camera position was pointed at empty space (measured: 2 colours, 723/522717 px lit);
fixed by switching to set_camera_centered, which auto-fits the box ·
