Dear all,

I hope everyone is doing well. I want to ask if it is possible to create models using gridpoints and zones. Any assistance will be appreciated. Thanks

Hi Umer,

you are probably looking for primitives. You can find more info here. Besides that there are also Building-Blocks and Sketch if you don’t want to load an externally created mesh.

Cheers,
Nils

Thanks for your reply. Yes, I created volume mesh using Gridde, and I saved that file as f3grid. Now I have the data for gridpoints, zones, and faces. Is it possible to define a new model according to this data? Thanks

Kind regards,
Umer Fiaz.

Hi Umer,

you already asked that 2 days ago and received an answer there as well. Just use the zone import command. :wink:
