class ansys.fluent.core.meshing.tui_241.main_menu.size_functions(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMenu

Manage advanced size functions.

Classes:

compute(service, version, mode, path)

Computes the size function based on the defined parameters.

contours(service, version, mode, path)

Contains options for managing contours.

controls(service, version, mode, path)

Menu to control different behavior of sf.

create(service, version, mode, path)

Defines the size function based on the specified parameters.

create_defaults(service, version, mode, path)

Creates default size functions based on face and edge curvature and proximity.

delete(service, version, mode, path)

Deletes the specified size function or the current size field.

delete_all(service, version, mode, path)

Deletes all the defined size functions.

disable_periodicity_filter(service, version, ...)

Removes periodicity from the size field.

enable_periodicity_filter(service, version, ...)

Applies periodicity to the size field.

list(service, version, mode, path)

Lists all the defined size functions and the corresponding parameter values defined.

list_periodicity_filter(service, version, ...)

List periodic in size field.

reset_global_controls(service, version, ...)

Resets the global controls to their default values.

set_global_controls(service, version, mode, path)

Sets the values for the global minimum and maximum size, and the growth rate.

set_prox_gap_tolerance(service, version, ...)

Sets the tolerance relative to minimum size to take gaps into account.

set_scaling_filter(service, version, mode, path)

Allows you specify the scale factor, and minimum and maximum size values to filter the size output from the size field.

triangulate_quad_faces(service, version, ...)

Identifies the zones comprising non-triangular elements and uses a triangulated copy of these zones for computing the size functions.

use_cad_imported_curvature(service, version, ...)

Allows you to disable curvature data from the nodes of the CAD facets.

class compute(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Computes the size function based on the defined parameters.

class create(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Defines the size function based on the specified parameters.

class create_defaults(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Creates default size functions based on face and edge curvature and proximity.

class delete(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Deletes the specified size function or the current size field.

class delete_all(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Deletes all the defined size functions.

class disable_periodicity_filter(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Removes periodicity from the size field.

class enable_periodicity_filter(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Applies periodicity to the size field. Specify the angle, pivot, and axis of rotation to set up periodicity. If periodicity has been previously defined, the existing settings will be applied. Only rotational periodicity is supported, translational periodicity is not supported currently.

class list(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Lists all the defined size functions and the corresponding parameter values defined.

class list_periodicity_filter(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

List periodic in size field.

class reset_global_controls(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Resets the global controls to their default values.

class set_global_controls(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Sets the values for the global minimum and maximum size, and the growth rate. If you set the global minimum size to a value greater than the local minimum size defined for existing proximity, curvature, or hard size functions, a warning will appear, indicating that the global minimum size cannot be greater than the specified local minimum size.

class set_prox_gap_tolerance(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Sets the tolerance relative to minimum size to take gaps into account. Gaps whose thickness is less than the global minimum size multiplied by this factor will not be regarded as a proximity gap.

class set_scaling_filter(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Allows you specify the scale factor, and minimum and maximum size values to filter the size output from the size field.

class triangulate_quad_faces(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Identifies the zones comprising non-triangular elements and uses a triangulated copy of these zones for computing the size functions.

class use_cad_imported_curvature(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Allows you to disable curvature data from the nodes of the CAD facets.
