Comsol cad import module manual

 · CAD file import is described to some extent in the Programming Reference Manual and there is also a programming reference chapter in the CAD Import Module User's Guide where you should read about the "Import" feature.  · The CAD Import Module, Design Module, and the LiveLink™ products for CAD include tools for repairing and preparing a geometry for simulation. They are powerful additions to the geometric modeling capabilities of the COMSOL Multiphysics® software. Let’s discuss how these tools work and when to apply them. A Brief History on the Use of CAD. In addition to the automatic repair that occurs on import, the CAD Import Module provides features that allow you to manually repair your CAD models after import. You can, for example, manually select faces and knit them together to form a .

The Application Gallery features COMSOL Multiphysics It is significantly easier to build a design with new CAD parameters than to build designs with novel topologies. This model demonstrate how to optimize the size and position of the tubes in a tube and shell heat exchanger. This example is an extension of a model used to study the. The 3D geometry objects constructed from the ECAD layouts can be further modified using available features in COMSOL Multiphysics. When combined with the CAD Import Module, Design Module, or one of the LiveLink™ products, the 3D geometry can be exported to the IGES, STEP, ACIS ® or Parasolid ® file formats for use in other software. This documentation covers the CAD Import Module and the add-on for file import of CATIA® V5 files. Instructions on how to use the geometry modeling tools in COMSOL Multiphysics® in general are included with the COMSOL Multiphysics Reference Manual. To help you get started with modeling this module is also accompanied by the quick-start.

CAD Import Module Updates. For users of the CAD Import Module, COMSOL Multiphysics ® version a brings updated support for new versions of certain file formats. View the complete list below. Updated Support for New CAD File Format Versions. The CAD file import and export functionality has been extended to support new versions for the. OVERVIEW OF THE CAD IMPORT MODULE | 5 File Formats Supported by COMSOL Products The various COMSOL products can import different sets of file formats. COMSOL Multiphysics itself comes with support for 2D formats and the surface-mesh geometry formats. The CAD Import Module covers the most common needs for translating 3D. CAD file import is described to some extent in the Programming Reference Manual and there is also a programming reference chapter in the CAD Import Module User's Guide where you should read about the "Import" feature.
