AddDefaultSources()

void AddDefaultSources

(

)

Add default CFD Mesh sources for all Geoms

ComputeCFDMesh()

void ComputeCFDMesh	(	int	set,
		int	file_type

Parameters

[in]	set	Set index (i.e. SET_ALL)
[in]	file_type	CFD Mesh file type to export (supports XOR i.e CFD_SRF_TYPE & CFD_STL_TYPE)

DeleteAllCFDSources()

void DeleteAllCFDSources

(

)

Parameters

[in]	type	CFD Mesh control type enum (i.e. CFD_GROWTH_RATIO)
[in]	val	Value to set

SetCFDWakeFlag()

void SetCFDWakeFlag	(	const string &in	geom_id,
		bool	flag
	)

Activate or deactivate the CFD Mesh wake for a particular Geom
