CFD-GEOM Filters

Sometimes during the creation of a geometric model it is possible to have overlapping (duplicate) points, line, edges, and faces. This can also occur when CAD files are imported into CFD-GEOM. The user usually finds this situation when trying to do additional operations in CFD-GEOM.

Scripting and Journaling in CFD-GEOM V2007.2

In CFD-GEOM V2007.2, scripting and journaling are now available.  Several improvements have been made to scripting, such as fewer modules that are arranged in a more logical manner, more robust functionality, etc.  As in previous versions of CFD-GEOM, the Python scripting language is still used to create the CFD-GEOM scripting functions.  If you are interested in scripting and journaling in CFD-GEOM, please read on.

Surface Trimming Utilities and Shortcuts in CFD-GEOM

CFD-GEOM provides several surface and trimming loop creation tools. Surface creation and trimming can be greatly simplified, depending upon what you want to do with the surfaces.  In most of the cases, surfaces are used to generate unstructured triangular and quad meshes on trimmed surfaces. 

Creating Repetitive Geometries in CFD-GEOM

CFD-GEOM has a wide range of geometry creation and manipulation tools. The translation and duplication tool is especially useful for creating geometries that consist of repetitive parts and/or symmetries. If you are interested in this topic, please read on.

Edge Substitution/Removal for Surfaces in CFD-GEOM

A new Edge Substitution/Removal tool is available in CFD-GEOM V2008.0.  This tool is designed to facilitate much easier modification of surface boundaries.  This tool can be used to substitute in/out edges for curves/lines that are used in the creation of a surface.
