hypermesh and acusolve

Altair Forum User

hello

i have to do a case study about the external flow for a wing with acusolve

i have the geometry and i created the domain now the next step is the mesh..but i don t know how it s work

i try to explain..i saw tutorial where the surface mesh was created for the wing e and for the domain in hypermesh than export it into acusolve where the boundary condition are placed

and then the 3d mesh was done..

but why i need the 2d mesh for external flow? and..can i do the 3d mesh in hypermesh and then export it in acusolve?

thx

If you work with Virtual Wind Tunnel, then the input for this GUI /Workflow is using .NAS (mesh file).  VWT is an easy to use tool, as 3D Meshing is in batch /automatic and the boundary condition setup is easy. Plus you can create a domain for external flow, very easy in the GUI and you just need to import surface mesh of the object(car).

 

If you wish to create entire 3D mesh in HyperMesh, it is possible to import that into AcuConsole. In fact, many simulations can be started directly from HyperMesh  (therby avoiding AcuConsole).
