Hi everyone,
Does anyone know how I would generate a 2d geometry on cfx5. Please let me know. Jennifer |

hi
you can do that but you will need to generate a 3d solid and specify the side walls as symmetric boundaries. that is how it is down in CFX.and you can keep this thicknes as small as you waant. henry |

Hi Jennifer,
You can switch the mesher to a 2D mode. Check out this FAQ for details. http://www.software.aeat.com/cfxcomm...ail.asp?id=527 Regards, Robin |

2D problems in CFX-5 are solved by:
1) Creating a mesh with a single layer of 3D elements. 2) Defining the transverse boundaries as symmetry planes. You have 2 options for grid generation in CFX-5: 1) Switch the mesher into 2D mode. See the posting by Robin for more details on that. 2) Use the native patran meshing tools in CFX-Build. You have to start Build in meshing only mode, and then select the patran mesher from the Tools menu I think?? I can't recall exactly. It's really easy though. Neale. |
