Turbulence Zone (2D) Data Fields

Turbulence Zone (2D) data can be edited on either the Turbulence Zone (2D) Grid Window of the Polygons Grid or the Turbulence Zone (2D)Property Sheet.

Most data can be edited on the grid, but some fields cannot be displayed in the grid format.

To view and edit all zone data, use the Property Sheet.

The following describes all the data which can be used to define a Turbulence Zone (2D).

Common Data Fields

Fields that are common to the majority of objects can be found in the Common Fields topic.

Turbulence model

The name of the Turbulence Model (2D) associated with this zone.

For a newly created turbulence zone, this is set to DEFAULT (a blank model assigned to the network). A list of all models available in the network can be displayed by clicking on the dropdown list.

Exclude turbulence zone boundary when creating 2D mesh

Indicates if the turbulence zone boundaries are used as break lines for triangulation when creating a 2D mesh that incorporates the turbulence zone (2D).

This option is selected by default.

If this option is not selected, 2D mesh triangles are assigned to the turbulence zone (2D) containing their centroid. Aggregation ensures that all triangles within a given 2D element are assigned the same turbulence zone (2D).
