Disappearing geometry
Hello, I have a geometry of a distillation column with some pipes attached to it (photo can be found here: https://ibb.co/zFh9hgj). When I do the snappyHexMesh procedure, the pipes just disappear (the corresponding pic is here: https://ibb.co/nQsmXfM) and I don't know the reason. Can anybody tell me where I should look for the problem? Is it related to the snappyHexMesh specs, drawing, or anything else?
Thanks, askarli. |
Have you done a surface check (literally, surfaceCheck)? One possible reason is that your distillation vessel is one closed surface, and the nozzles are separate closed surfaces. The surface check should sort that out.
Presumably you have extracted the feature lines for the nozzles and are including them in the SHM dictionary? |
Hi,
I did the surfaceCheck of the file and the result is shown below. Could you please have a look at it? I didn't notice any problem. Code:

Agreed - it seems to be one piece, although it is complaining about a few "bad faces" - check the folder, and you should see a file there with a list of the face numbers that it thinks are failing a quality check. Probably worth cleaning that up first. Then maybe check your SHM surface and edge settings, and possibly try with a finer background mesh (it looks pretty coarse from your picture).
