SURFACEBOOLEANFEATURES

NAME

surfaceBooleanFeatures - part of OpenFOAM (The Open Source CFD Toolbox).

SYNOPSIS

surfaceBooleanFeatures [OPTIONS] action surface1 surface2

DESCRIPTION

Generates the extendedFeatureEdgeMesh for the interface created by a boolean
operation on two surfaces.

ARGUMENTS

action

One of (intersection | union | difference)

surface1

The input surface file 1

surface2

The input surface file 2

OPTIONS

-case dir

Specify case directory to use (instead of the cwd)

-invertedSpace

Do the surfaces have inverted space orientation, i.e. a point at infinity is considered inside. This is only sensible for union and intersection.

-perturb

Perturb surface points to escape degenerate intersections

-scale factor

Geometry scaling factor (both surfaces)

-surf1Baffle

Mark surface 1 as a baffle

-surf2Baffle

Mark surface 2 as a baffle

-trim ((surface1 volumeType) .. (surfaceN volumeType))

Trim resulting intersection with additional surfaces; volumeType is ’inside’ (keep (parts of) edges that are inside), ’outside’ (keep (parts of) edges that are outside) or ’mixed’ (keep all)
