Hello dears,
heat transfert input data of a 3d model is made of:
- an element face number
- a value of Q0 related to the surface of this face
I have to apply a heating power on a total surface of let's say 0.1 square meter. this surface is curved, and the meshing is not regular (because of misc. considerations)
My questions are:
- how to "measure" an element face area? Alternatively (should be a better one), how to obtain a table (or ideally a "mapping") with surface per element face, starting from a selection of elements or elements faces on the whole loaded surface?
- how to store these measure (as .csv file for instance), so that I could determine values of Q0 for each face in order to apply my Q0's properly?
- Any alternative that would be faster to implement welcome.
I notice there where some previous discussions already opened about this topic, but i did not find how to implement them on recent versions of hypermesh/hyperview (see tags).
Thanks ahead.
