Iso-Surfaces

  • Used to specify the iso-surfaces that are required to be generated by the application.

  • This is an optional section.

  • User specifies the name of the iso-surfaces and its properties.

  • A iso-surface can be provided by specifying the result name, derived type (if it is not scalar) and value at which the iso surfaces has to created.

  • User can also specify the CellZone for which iso surface has to be done instead of the whole model

  • Usage Example:

    * ISO_SURFACES
    
    - "Iso_surface1", RESULT="VelocityMagnitude", VALUE=0.5
    - "Iso_surface2", RESULT="VelocityMagnitude", VALUE=0.5, COMPONENT="BODY 3_1"
    - "ISO_VEL_X=0.6", RESULT="Velocity", DERIVED=X, VALUE=0.6
    

Data Attributes

  • COMPONENT: If Component name is specified, the cut section is created for that component. Supports wildcards are well.

  • RESULT: Result for iso surface generation

  • DERIVED: If the result is Vector/Tensor then dervied result has to be mentioned.

  • VALUE: The result value for ISO SURFACE creation.

Examples

Specifying Iso-Surfaces

* ISO_SURFACES

- "Iso_surface1", RESULT="VelocityMagnitude", VALUE=0.5
- "Iso_surface2", RESULT="VelocityMagnitude", VALUE=0.5, COMPONENT="BODY 3_1"
- "ISO_VEL_X=0.6", RESULT="Velocity", DERIVED=X, VALUE=0.6
  • This creates 3 iso surfaces in the exported CAX.

  • The first surface is defined at result VelocityMagnitude == 0.5

  • The second surface is defined at result VelocityMagnitude == 0.5 at component BODY 3_1

  • The third surface is defined at result VELOCITY, DERIVED = X equal to 0.6.
