Zusammenfassung: | A new method is proposed for specifying the geometrical shape and for meshing of the computational domain for CFD or general numerical PDE solvers which allow block-structured or unstructured meshes. The new method is based on highlighting pre-meshed spatial zones for boundary and material definitions with subsequent shape-matching deformations. The new method combines functionality with ease of implementation and ease of use which make it suitable for in-house computational codes. Although intended predominantly for research, the proposed method has been used successfully in a number of computational engineering projects. |
