GUST Interface
(Return)
The ICEM-CFD/GUST translator creates the input file necessary to run
the GUST solver.
Creating the GUST Input Files
The translator writes the GUST input file, using a 3D unstructured domain
file and its corresponding
boundary conditions file. To create the GUST input file, select the
translator "GUST" in the "Output" menu from
the ICEM CFD/CAE Manager. After clicking "Write output" you can specify
options for the GUST interface:
-
select an existing unstructured domain file (default is hex.unstruct)
-
select the boundary condition file (default is boco)
-
give the name of the GUST input file (default is gust_configuration)
The interface generates the GUST files in the Transfer Shell. You may open
a shell window in this
directory by selecting the menu items "Utility" and "Transfer Shell".
Defining element groups GUST
In MULCAD the boundary conditions and properties are defined using the
"Unspec. Bound. Cond." menu. For grids generated with the HEXA-Mesher or
the TETRA-Mesher, the boundary conditions and properties are defined in
the "general bound. cond." menu of the DDN-Mesher Interface. Please refer
to the
General Remarks section for more details.
Element groups
The program supports the definition of boundary groups and cell groups.
For mesh generated with HEXA or TETRA, these groups are automatically created
according to the families. For meshes generated with MULCAD-PADAMM
or P-CUBE, the groups must be defined by simply selecting an exterior wall
or block and giving it a name. This name can be any string of up to five
characters long:
| MULCAD |
define... |
| 1. FLAG |
Enter a name (max 5 chars) |
Limitation
-
Supports 3D mesh configurations only.
