Using "Visual Scaling" for Models with Drastically Varying Length Scales
For models that have drastically varying length
scales, it can be difficult to create the grid, setup
a model, and post process the results. CFD-GEOM,
CFD-ACE-GUI, and CFD-VIEW have a "Visual Scale"
capability that can significantly help when working
with these types of models. As an example for this
tip,
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.
Viewing Your Model in CFD-GEOM
CFD-GEOM has many tools that can
make viewing and manipulating your models easier. When you create
your model, CFD-GEOM will show the handles for entities that are
created. These handles are more like a wire frame representation
of the model.
Unstructured Meshing in CFD-GEOM V2007
There have been several improvements to unstructured
meshing in CFD-GEOM V2007. These new capabilities add
more flexibility to unstructured meshing in CFD-GEOM
as well as an overall better user experience.
Updating the Grid in DTF Files
Many times in CFD modeling and analysis, you would
like to change the grid density and rerun the case. In doing
so, you would like to keep the existing problem
settings in the DTF file while updating the grid only.
