Problem the patch

February 23, 2003, 14:39

Hello, I have a problem with the thermal radiation. I have create a boundary condition on a region, after that I have create the patch for each boundary. Now I want reduce the number of patch for this boundary but I not want delete the boundary. I'd like to delete the patch without delete the boundary condition. How can I get it? Thank you in advance.

Bye

I'm not sure if there's a way to delete patches but I remember that patches that are on non-participating surfaces will be ignored by STAR.

I suppose you can redeclare patches again but this time reuse the numbering so that you will overwrite previous patches. Boundary Tool>Boundary Patches>Starting Patch Number>Enter Patch Number -->___
