how to create angular points in fluent(angular-rake)

srikanth-aero · February 18, 2011, 12:27

hello sir,
i want to create a number of points with angle wise on cylinder body for this i am using "point" option,if i want 72 points i am giving 72 points data(i.e co-ordinate system location) it is taking more time.i seen option "rake" but by using this the points are forming linearly not angularly.so please tell me any option to solve my probme

Hi,
one possible way is using a journal file to automate point creation.
refer to TUI manual to find that instruction and create a journal file by a simple FORTRAN code.
