ManageZones

class ansys.fluent.core.generated.datamodel_261.meshing.Root.ManageZones(service, rules, command, path=None)

Bases: PyCommand

Use this task to perform common operations on cell zones or face zones, Prior to generating the volume mesh, you can perform operations such as separating zones, splitting cylindrical regions, or extracting edges. After generating your volume mesh, you can perform operations such as renaming, changing prefixes, and merging zones. Especially useful for complex models with numerous zones. More…

Parameters:

Typestr

Indicate whether you are going to operate on Cell Zones or Face Zones. If your imported CAD geometry contains bodies with multiple body labels, you can also choose Body Labels.

ZoneFilterstr

Choose the type of zone. For cell zones, choose from Fluid, Solid, or All. For face zones, choose from Internal, Fluid-Fluid, Solid-Fluid, Fluid-Solid, External-Solid, External-Fluid, or External.

SizeFilterstr

Indicate how you would like to filter the list of zones: All, Less than, More than, or Equal to the indicated value for the Volume (cell zone) or Area (face zone).

Areafloat

Volumefloat

EqualRangefloat

Specify a percentage range to maintain equivalency for the cell zone volume value or the face zone area value.

ZoneOrLabelstr

Choose how you want to make your selection (by label or zone name).

LabelListlist[str]

Choose from the list of labels, or enter a text string to filter out the list of labels. Use the Filter Text drop-down to provide text and/or regular expressions in filtering the list (for example, using *, ?, and []). Choose Use Wildcard to provide wildcard expressions in filtering the list. When you use either ? or * in your expression, the matching list item(s) are automatically selected in the list. Use ^, |, and & in your expression to indicate boolean operations for NOT, OR, and AND, respectively. More…

TopologyListlist[str]

ManageFaceZoneListlist[str]

Choose from the list of face zones, or enter a text string to filter out the list of face zones. Use the Filter Text drop-down to provide text and/or regular expressions in filtering the list (for example, using *, ?, and []). Choose Use Wildcard to provide wildcard expressions in filtering the list. When you use either ? or * in your expression, the matching list item(s) are automatically selected in the list. Use ^, |, and & in your expression to indicate boolean operations for NOT, OR, and AND, respectively. More…

ManageCellZoneListlist[str]

Choose from the list of cell zones, or enter a text string to filter out the list of cell zones. Use the Filter Text drop-down to provide text and/or regular expressions in filtering the list (for example, using *, ?, and []). Choose Use Wildcard to provide wildcard expressions in filtering the list. When you use either ? or * in your expression, the matching list item(s) are automatically selected in the list. Use ^, |, and & in your expression to indicate boolean operations for NOT, OR, and AND, respectively. More…

BodyLabelListlist[str]

Choose from the list of labels, or enter a text string to filter out the list of labels. Use the Filter Text drop-down to provide text and/or regular expressions in filtering the list (for example, using *, ?, and []). Choose Use Wildcard to provide wildcard expressions in filtering the list. When you use either ? or * in your expression, the matching list item(s) are automatically selected in the list. Use ^, |, and & in your expression to indicate boolean operations for NOT, OR, and AND, respectively. More…

Operationstr

Indicate the operation you wish to perform on the zones. When the task is located prior volume meshing: Separate Zones, Split Cylinders, Split normal to X, Split normal to Y, Split normal to Z, or Extract Edges. When the task is located after volume meshing: Change prefix, Rename, Merge, or Separate Zones. If your imported CAD geometry contains bodies with multiple body labels, you can also choose Merge cells within each body label

OperationNamestr

The text string to be applied to this zone operation.

MZChildNamestr

Specify a name for the managed zone control or use the default value.

AddPrefixNamestr

The text string to be applied to this zone operation.

FaceMergestr

Indicate whether or not you want to merge faces as part of the zone operation.

Anglefloat

Specify a value for the separation angle for determining separation. Assigning a smaller separation angle will produce more zones.

ZoneListlist[str]

CompleteZoneListlist[str]

CompleteLabelListlist[str]

Choose from the list of labels, or enter a text string to filter out the list of labels. Use the Filter Text drop-down to provide text and/or regular expressions in filtering the list (for example, using *, ?, and []). Choose Use Wildcard to provide wildcard expressions in filtering the list. When you use either ? or * in your expression, the matching list item(s) are automatically selected in the list. Use ^, |, and & in your expression to indicate boolean operations for NOT, OR, and AND, respectively. More…
