Pointwise Analysis Interface Module (AIM)
Pointwise Analysis Interface Module (AIM)
|
A module in the Computational Aircraft Prototype Syntheses (CAPS) has been developed to interact with the general grid generator Pointwise.
The Pointwise AIM provides the CAPS users with the ability to generate volume meshes mostly suitable for CFD analysis. This includes both inviscid analysis and viscous analysis with boundary layers using the pointwise T-Rex algorithm.
An outline of the AIM's inputs, outputs and attributes are provided in AIM Inputs and AIM Outputs and AIM Attributes, respectively.
Details of the AIM's shareable data structures are outlined in AIM Shareable Data if connecting this AIM to other AIMs in a parent-child like manner.
Files output:
Pointwise should be executed on Linux/macOS with the command line:
and on Windows with:
