About the presentation
Traditionally FLACS has used box and cylinder volumetric primitive objects exclusively to represent complex geometry. This engineering approach has many advantages and has worked well for various types of installation. However, with ever more complex CAD models, shorter project timelines, and new application areas, this approach is becoming more and more limiting. This is one of the reasons why we are developing new routines and algorithms to use mesh geometric objects directly in FLACS simulations
Djurre presents the work that has been done so far on supporting mesh object geometries in future versions of FLACS, including some initial validation.
