Goals:
-Import a model in Para-solid format
-Use the enclosure operation to create a solid region representing the model’s surrounding field
Project Page> Component Systems> Geometry
Project Page> Component Systems> Geometry
DM will Open. When prompted choose “meter” as the length unit
Import the Parasolids file “blade.x_t”
- [Main menu] >File> Import External Geometry File . . . Browse to file “blade.x_t” and open.
- “Generate” the import.
- From the “Tools” menu choose “Enclosure”
- Choose “Cylinder” from the shape field in the details window
- “Generate” the enclosure
Note: we left the cushion field set to the default 1m. Larger or smaller bounding enclosures can be defined using this field.
With the enclosure generated, notice there are now 2 bodies in the tree, one frozen (the enclosure) and one active (the blade)
- From the tree highlight the active solid (the blade), RMB and “Hide Body”
With the blade hidden it can be seen that the enclosure contains a void representing the boundaries of the structure. This enclosure is suitable for meshing .
