Hello all,
can anyone explain what is "Faces per Surface Cluster" ? I'm confused on the procedure of clustering in S2S model and I've read theory guide but it still looks unclear to me. Cheers, Negin |

Hello nenazarian,
using this method you can reduce the computational load of the simulation: the solver doesn't calculate the view factors of every cell-faces, but collects a certain amount of faces in clusters in order to calculate less view factors (because number of clusters < number of all cell-faces). You need this method when the mesh is quite large and heavy. Regards
