34.5.10 Adapt/Geometry...

The Adapt/Geometry... menu item opens the Geometry Based Adaption dialog box.

Geometry Based Adaption Dialog Box

The Geometry Based Adaption dialog box allows you to reconstruct the geometry while performing boundary adaption. See Section  27.10 for details.

Controls

Reconstruct Geometry   enables geometry based adaption parameters.

Surface Meshes...   opens the Surface Meshes dialog box (see Section  2).

Wall Zones   allows you to select the wall zones you want to adapt.

Set...   opens the Geometry Based Adaption Controls dialog box.

Surface Meshes Dialog Box

The Surface Meshes dialog box allows you to read the surface meshes in ANSYS FLUENT (See Section  6.3.16 for details on reading surface meshes.)

Controls

Surfaces   contains a list of the surfaces available in the surface mesh you read.

  You can select/deselect the surfaces listed under Surfaces.

Read...   opens Select File dialog box in which you can select the surface mesh you want to read.

Delete   allows you to delete the selected surfaces under Surfaces area.

Display   allows you to display the selected surfaces under Surfaces.

Geometry Based Adaption Controls Dialog Box

The Geometry Based Adaption Controls dialog box allows you to set projections. It is opened from the Geometry Based Adaption dialog box. See Section  27.10.1 for details about the items below.

Controls

Controls   contains parameters to define geometry based adaption.

Disable Geometry Based Adaption for this Zone   disables the geometry reconstruction for selected zones in the domain.

Levels of Projection Propagation   is the number of layers of the nodes you want to project.

Direction of Projection   allows you to specify the direction in which you want to project the nodes.

Background Mesh   allows you to load the surface mesh as a background mesh for adaption.
