Bases: Group

Holds advanced parameters to control the details of interface discretization.

Attributes

Attribute

Summary

enabled

Enable the INTERSECTION CONTROL object.

option

The ‘Intersection Control’ option.

permit_no_intersection

When true, the solver will run when there is no overlap between the two sides of a GGI/MFR interface. Use this parameter for transient rotor-stator cases with rotating valves etc. that sometimes are fully closed to the geometry.

discernible_fraction

Control surface discernible area fraction.

edge_scale_factor

Degenerate surface length scale tolerance.

periodic_axial_radial_tolerance

GGI periodic surfaces cannot be constant axial surfaces or constant radial surfaces. This parameter controls the tolerance used to determine if the surface is in one of these two invalid situations.

circumferential_normalized_coordinates_option

Sets the calculation recipe for eta.

face_search_tolerance_factor

Scaling factor applied to element sized based separation distance that is used to find candidates for the GGI intersection.

face_intersection_depth_factor

Scaling factor applied to element sized based separation distance that is used to intersect the sides of a GGI interface.

angle_tolerance

Angle tolerance for intersection (in degrees) used for the direct intersector. The normal vectors of two intersected faces has to be in opposite direction with respect to the specified tolerance.

bitmap_resolution

Bitmap resolution to use on a mesh face when calculating the mesh intersection for a nonmatched domain interface.

Included in:

Parent

Summary

mesh_connection

Defines how the meshes on a domain interface are connected.

solver_control

Holds all objects that control discretization and execution of the solution process.
