From 3D to 2D in simlab for FLUX simulation
Is there any way to obtain a 2D geometry to simulate in Flux from a complex 3D CAD model? For instance, by creating a cutting plane on the 3D model and designating the resulting faces for simulation or something similar.
Additionally, I am assuming that SimLab is the tool to perform this task, but I am open to using any other tool if I am mistaken.

The downside is that it's a fairly complex CAD that I would like to avoid using through Flux, at least in its full version. That's why I thought of SimLab, understanding that it is the right tool to centralize this type of simplified operations. There is no Altair tool for this kind of tasks?
Altair EmployeeIn SimLab, you can use the option under Geometry < Body < From Faces, to create separate 2D bodies from 3D CAD.
Thank you for sharing this option. How do I generate the faces to then apply the method explained in From Faces.pdf ?

Hi Gaizka,
We have a video on how to obtain 2D geometry from 3D in Flux.
Hope this helps.
Thank you,
