A topoSetFaceSource
to select faces based on face centres inside a given bounding sphere.
Operand | Type | Location |
---|---|---|
output | faceSet | $FOAM_CASE/constant/polyMesh/sets/<set> |
Example of the sphereToFace
topoSet by using actions
sub-dictionary in system/topoSetDict
file:
{ // Mandatory (inherited) entries name <name>; type faceSet; action <action>; // Mandatory entries source sphereToFace; origin (0 0 0); radius 0.5; // Optional entries innerRadius 0; }
where the entries mean:
Property | Description | Type | Required | Default |
---|---|---|---|---|
name | Name of faceSet | word | yes | - |
type | Type name: faceSet | word | yes | - |
action | Action applied on faces - see below | word | yes | - |
source | Source name: sphereToFace | word | yes | - |
origin | The origin (centre) of the sphere | vector | yes | - |
radius | The (outer) radius of sphere | scalar | yes | - |
innerRadius | The inner radius of sphere | scalar | no | 0 |
Options for the action
entry:
new | Create a new faceSet from selected faces add | Add selected faces into this faceSet subtract | Remove selected faces from this faceSet
