Wall Distance in CFX

davidwilcox · September 22, 2014, 20:04

Hi,
I 'm trying to input a function in CFX CEL environment to specify a wall distance only in the X direction. The only available option is the variable 'Wall Distance'. This option considers the wall distance in all directions. Is there a way to only use the X wall distance?

Cheers
David

Do you mean from the point follow along a line of constant Y and Z until you get to a wall, and then return the X distance you travelled? No, there is no function available for this.

What do you need it for?
