Phast presents results in multiple formats. The 3D viewer (enhanced in version 8.6 and later) displays radiation and temperature isosurfaces and isocontours, allowing you to visualise the impact footprint. The Graph Wizard provides 2D plots of concentration vs. downwind distance, thermal radiation vs. distance, and overpressure vs. distance. For overpressure effects, version 9.0 added the ability to produce dynamic pressure exceedance curves , which are essential for designing blast‑resistant structures. The Points of Interest feature allows you to define specific building locations or safety system coordinates and retrieve detailed consequence metrics at those precise points.
