[ANSYS Meshing] & SpaceClaim Baflles shared topology

jacekPOZOR · November 20, 2017, 12:29

hello

I want to share topology between surface and volume, i wonder how to share topology baffles witch is completly within volume,

Can someone suggest me how to set up this problem in SpaceClaim 18.2 and ansysMeshing 18.2?

I wonder how i have to construct a modell tree.
Should i have to put surfaces and volumes into separate part and merge it?

I do this like below:

ASSEMBLY OF DOMAIN WATER: (SHARE)

WATER 1 (SHARE)

SUB-ASSEMBLY DOMAIN WATER AND BAFFLES: (SHARE)

PART 1 - Volume (SHARE)
PART 2 - Baffles (MERGE)

and it takes no effect- Fluent cant see baffles as wall "0" thcikenss.

Manual says that i have to use MEREGE operation, but i wonder what with what excatly i have to merge?

I don want to merge all water domain, water blocks have to share with each other.

Hi Lucjan,

It’s a bit difficult to figure out the geometry you’re trying to model, as we say a picture is worth a thousand words

As a general guideline, in SC if you have several entities you can regroup them in a component and decide which option of Share topology you want (i.e. None / Group / Share / Merge). Moreover in SC under the workbench tab > sharing , you have access to different tools to imprint areas / faces to across different bodies. This should solve your problem.

Have fun
