Geometry Scale in CFX

a.sarami · September 14, 2013, 17:11

Hi,
I have imported a mesh from ICEM to CFX and noticed that the dimensions are multiplied by some factor. Would you please help me scale my geometry in CFX-Pre?
Cheers
Ali

Use the transform geometry option. You can scale, translate, rotate geometries with this tool.

Thank you so much, and do you mean "Transform Geometry" option in ICEM or you are referring to any option in CFX-Pre?
Thanks

You can translate in ICEM or CFX-Pre. They both have the option.

Hello ghorrocks,

How can I scale in CFX-pre ?, I ask because I try to scale in the meshing but it only allows me up for a factor of 1e-3.

During mesh import you should be able to select the units for the mesh, so CFX-Pre can scale it properly.

After the mesh has been imported, right click on the mesh icon, and select Mesh Transformation, and use the scaling option.
