From the
Setup section of the
action bar,
click
Mesh Setup
.
- Optional:
Customize the
Mesh size.
This value specifies the average mesh cell size, which the app
calculates based on the size of your model. Small mesh cells produce a more
refined mesh and more accurate simulation results, but with a cost of longer
simulation execution times. The app calculates the default mesh size based on
the overall dimensions of the part, and it generally produces medium quality
simulation results. For the best accuracy, specify a mesh size of one-third of
the part thickness or less. Smaller mesh cells can be necessary for parts with
small passages in critical regions, such as gates.
-
Specify the number of
Boundary layers and the thickness of the first
layer.
Boundary layers are thin mesh cells created at the inner and
outer surfaces of the part. They allow resolution of temperature and
solidification effects that vary through the thickness of the part, because the
surface layers can freeze while the central layers continue to flow. For high
accuracy, specify two or more boundary layers.
