Importing the t junction to the main file

The two parts of the model have been drawn. Now they must be joined so that the final volume may be generated and the mesh generation may be carried out.

Importing a GiD file

  1. Choose Read from the Files menu. Select the file that where the first part, created in section 3, was saved. Click Open.
  2. Select the "ok" layer, and click Layer To use so that the imported file will be in this layer.
  3. Choose Insert geometry from the Files menu. Select the file where the second part, created in section 4, was saved. Click Open.
  4. The T junction appears. Keep in mind that the lines defining the end of the first pipe (background) of the T junction, and which have been imported, were already present in the first file. Notice that the lines overlap. This overlapping will be remedied by collapsing the lines.
  5. Figure 32. Importing the T junction file to the main file.
    Some points are duplicated and must be collapsed.

     

     

  6. Change the imported geometry to the "ok" layer.
  7. Choose the option Utilities Collapse Lines. Select the overlapping lines and press ESC.
