Hi guys,
I was wondering if any of you has experience with extracting an .stl file from NX and use it for snappy. I managed to extract the stl and apply snappy to it, but I cannot assign patches to all the surfaces, since it has only one surface. The options I already found are: 1. Create seperate .stl files for all the surfaces. 2. Match the surfaces with those of the blockMesh and assign the patches in the blockMeshDict. Is there another, more 'elegant' way to do this? Since option 2 does not work for complex geometries. |
