Detailed Description

Function Documentation

InitStackPreset()

void vsp::InitStackPreset ( const std::string & geom_id, int preset )

extern

Replace every XSec of a StackGeom with a preset starting point. Most of the presets lay out a nacelle; which one you want depends on whether the model needs the inlet, the outlet, the external surface, the internal flowpath, or some combination. This discards the existing cross sections, so it belongs right after the StackGeom is created.

string stack_id = AddGeom( "STACK", "" );
 
InitStackPreset( stack_id, STACK_PRESET_FLOWTHRU_MID_ORIG );
 
Update();
 
// Each preset lays down its own set of XSecs, replacing the default five.
string xsec_surf = GetXSecSurf( stack_id, 0 );
 
if ( GetNumXSec( xsec_surf ) != 7 )
{
    Print( "ERROR: InitStackPreset did not rebuild the XSecs" );
    __failure++;
}

Parameters

[in]	geom_id	string StackGeom Geom ID
[in]	preset	int Preset enum (see STACK_PRESETS)
