quasi 2D slice in proam
HI Experts!
Is there a way to create a 2d slice (one cell thick) in proam? because I am afraid that it will start growing mesh inside and away from the perpendicular shells (along z) it can produce more than desired 1 cell... I have already the surfaces describing my slice and my plan is: 1.create the mesh with proam (trimmed) this way I will obtain nicely meshed front face. 2.remove everything apart of this front face 3.extrude the front face. Isn't it a bit 'oversophisticated'??? :) I am afraid that I must have missed something in the manual... ps. does anyone have a template mesh for an octagonal crossection? |
Re: quasi 2D slice in proam
No need to use pro-am - use command VCEX (extrude shells) in pro-STAR, or the STAR GUIde under Create 2D Grids to extrude shells just one fluid cell thick in say Z direction.
(You might use pro-am to smooth or remesh the surface say to convert triangles to quads etc first). Not sure what you mean by octagonal template - if you mean just a simple octagon shape, try the PATCH command to create this in one of two patches then VMERGE then VCEX as above. |
