How to make folded face in cfx-post？

superqtp · May 17, 2010, 22:02

As we know, we can make the Plane1(X=0) and Plane2(Y=0) in a column vessel through the tool of Plane in CFX-post. The two planes(Plane1 and Plane2) cross at the central axis of the column. Now the question is that I want to only show the folded face formed by two half faces of Plane1 and Plane2 divided by the central axis, at the same time delete the another two half faces. I don't know whether I have clearly illustrated the problem. Actually, I have a pic on the problem, but I don't know how to upload it

. So......

Thanks in advance!

Use plane bounds to limit the plane to the area you want. Then use a surface group to combine them together into a single entity.

Dear ghorrocks：
Hi！ I am a newcomer. Could you tell me how to limit the plane to a siutable area? Thanks!

Have a look at the bounds tab on CFD-Post when you are editting the plane object.
