CAD Editor in CONVERGE Studio

The CAD Editor in CONVERGE Studio contains powerful tools for transforming CAD models into water-tight geometries for CONVERGE simulations. The CAD Editor tools operate directly on the CAD surfaces to create fluid volumes, define interfaces for conjugate heat transfer simulations, and minimize surface triangulation issues. This course will cover the CAD Editor’s geometry creation and modification capabilities, from simple shape creation to complex CAD body splitting, closing, uniting, and defeaturing. Additionally, we will go over how to group CAD faces and bodies to form boundaries and regions, so the geometry details are ready to go when the mesh is transferred to the Case Setup module. Finally, we will discuss the specification of the meshing parameters as well as mesh generation and transfer from the CAD Editor to the Case Setup module.

This course will include workflow demonstrations and hands-on practice with the geometry modification and meshing tools.
