1.3.1 Introduction

1.3.2 Creating Connectors on the Hull

1.4 Hexa Blade

Highlight Steps:

  1. blade surface mesh (domain) domain on database, cluster on tip, root, LE, TE
  2. Blade domain normal extrude
  3. Periodic Boundary domain mesh
  4. Split block
  5. add connector, assemble shroud and hub domains
  6. Normal extrude >> blade Boundary extrusion
  7. Elliptical solver >> smoothing mesh

1.8 Setting Unstructured Domain and Block Defaults

1.10 Resolving the Wake

1.11 unstructured 2d domain form 2d surface (quilt) database

create connector setup number of nodes and distribution function on connector create domain using "domains on database entities"

  • The Connectors on Database Entities and Domains on Data-base Entities commands require a default connector Dimension or Average Δs be set before they can be used.

1.13 unstructured 3D block from domain(2d mesh)

Create/assemble special/block Select one face and then Select/select all adjacent (C+S+A) Select all faces composing the block(3d mesh) initialize >How to Create an Unstructured Block with an Internal Face

  • orange arrow implies the domain is open

1.13.1 pick a domain to add to the first face. the first face should be the outer face and must be a closed face

1.14 Toggling Visibility of Various Entity Types

1.17 Dimension Connectors From Spacings

  • Goal: dimension a set of connectors based on prescribed beginning, ending, and max allowable spacing between grid point parameters.
