Question about the pipe tutorial was created by François
Hello,

In order to get used to Salome meshing for OpenFOAM, i had a look at this tutorial and there is something i don't get in it.
www.caelinux.org/wiki/downloads/docs/Pipe2007/PipeGeom.htm

You define the first face (Group Name: F1), it is close to the end of the video. Why do you select the Sub-Shape 26 since it is smaller than the Sub-Shape 11? My point here is that if I want to have a fluid input on this side, then, the Sub-Shape 11 includes all the input face of the pipe. So why including the Sub-Shape 26?

Thanks your your help.

i think that the two faces 26 and 11 make up the complete axial cross section of the, say, inlet area.
Face 26 is only the inner circular area, face 11 in the outer circular area.
Face 11 does not include face 26.

The same is valid for the cylinder areas that are defined for the group Walls: 4, 16, 28 and 33. They are non-overlapping.

Interest: structural mechanics, solar energy (picture at 'my location' shows too little pv panels)
