ICEM CFD Introductory Course-Geometry

ANSYS ICEM CFD was designed to mainly import geometry, not create complicated geometries, although many geometry tools are provided

An accurate solution reflects the underlying geometry.   To get such, ICEM CFD provides:

•Geometry import

–Directly from CAD package

–3rd party formats (step, acis, etc…)

–via Workbench/Design Modeler

•Surface geometry kernel

–Imported solids are converted to surfaces

•Many internal CAD tools

–Geometry creation

–Geometry modification

Geometry fixing

This Jet engine model was built solely with ICEM CFD geometry tools

Color coding

•Topology curves are color coded to indicate their surface connection status

–green = unconnected, yellow = single, red = double, blue = multiple, Grey = dormant (filtered out)

–Turn color coding off on in Model tree > Geometry > Curves > Color by count

–Red curves indicate two surfaces meet within the tolerance, This is what you want for a solid model.

–Yellow curves will usually indicate some repair is required
