Mesh#
- class ansys.meshing.prime.lucid.Mesh(model)#
Provides methods for users who are new to meshing.
This class also serves as a tutorial for commonly used meshing workflows.
The
Mesh
class provides these functionalities:Surface meshing with constant and variable sizing with triangle or quad dominant mesh
Volume meshing with prism, tetrahedral, and polyhedral elements
Surface wrapping
Helper method for creating zones from labels
Helper methods for reading and writing files

Mesh.create_flow_volume
([...])Create flow volume by the face labels defining the boundary of the volume.
Create zones from labels.
Mesh.delete_topology
([part_expression, ...])Delete topology in one or more parts.
Mesh.merge_parts
([parts_expression, new_name])Merge multiple parts into a single part.
Mesh.read
(file_name[, append, cad_reader_route])Read or import files of different formats based on file extensions.
Mesh.surface_mesh
([min_size, max_size, ...])Generate a surface mesh on a scope.
