Hello,
I want to move surface nodes perpendicular to the neighbouring surface, could you please suggest how to do it using fluent UDF. Regards Subrat |

Hello Subrat,
You may use the face area vector F_AREA to get the direction of the face normal. You will probably need to identify the face by its ID and divide the area vector by its magnitude (NV_MAG) to get the unity normal. The UDF guide and this forum have examples of this. Regards, Maks. |
