Ccs revolve mesh

Commands of the ccs_revolve_mesh chapter of the database, 10 entries. The status words are defined once, on the compatibility matrix, which says what each rests on and what the script builder does with it. Read it before this page: broken and removed are refusals, so a row here can be telling you the emitter will not write that command for that version.

CCS_REVOLVE_MESH_GROWTH_RATE

Phase geometry, layout inline. Manual: SRC-003 p.304.

Ratio between the sizes of consecutive cells under the clustering scheme of the same direction. The manual states the value must be greater than zero and the bound is not enforced here.

CCS_REVOLVE_MESH_GROWTH_SCHEME

Phase geometry, layout inline. Manual: SRC-003 p.304.

How grid nodes cluster along the direction, with the same four schemes as the wing and fuselage chapters. The rate is set separately and means nothing under NONE.

CCS_REVOLVE_MESH_PERIODICITY

Phase geometry, layout inline. Manual: SRC-003 p.304.

CCS_REVOLVE_MESH_SUBDIVISIONS

Phase geometry, layout inline. Manual: SRC-003 p.304.

DELETE_CCS_REVOLVE_REFINEMENT_ZONES

Phase geometry, layout inline. Manual: SRC-003 p.305.

Deletes one axial refinement zone by its 1-based index, or every one of them when passed -1. Not declared as all_sentinel: refinement zones are not an inventory the script builder tracks, so no index check exists for it to be exempt from.

Phase geometry, layout inline. Manual: SRC-003 p.305.

Deletes one relaxed trailing-edge boundary by its 1-based index, or every one of them when passed -1. Not declared as all_sentinel, for the reason given on DELETE_CCS_REVOLVE_REFINEMENT_ZONES.

EXPORT_REVOLVE_CCS_FILE

Phase geometry, layout inline. Manual: SRC-003 p.305.

Writes the lofted body of revolution to a file instead of into the simulation. THIS PAGE IS WHERE THE EXPORT SAMPLES ARE PROVED TO BE COPIES. The signature heading prints six placeholders, the parameter table documents four of them, and the sample passes EIGHT arguments, among them a frame index, an axis and two angles that appear nowhere in this command's heading and are exactly the extra arguments of the neighbouring CAD_CREATE_REVOLVE_MESH_FROM_CCS. A sample that carries arguments its own signature does not name is the create command's sample with the name swapped, so it is not evidence about this command at all. The six of the heading are recorded, as on the fuselage sibling, and the probe is registered as PLN-20260808-1730. The parameter table is missing the MARK_TRAILING_EDGES and TE_GEOMETRY rows that the wing sibling's table prints in full for the same six placeholders. CLOSE_ENDS accepts TRUE as well as OPEN and CLOSED, the contradiction the whole CCS family carries.

mark_trailing_edges enum in
te_geometry enum in
close_ends enum in
loft_type_u enum in
loft_type_v enum in

NEW_CCS_REVOLVE_REFINEMENT_ZONE

Phase geometry, layout inline. Manual: SRC-003 p.304.

Inserts extra grid nodes over an axial parametric interval, U0 and U1 between 0 and 1 with U1 greater than U0. NUM_PTS is the count added inside the interval. Neither bound is enforced here.

u0 float
u1 float
num_pts int

NEW_CCS_REVOLVE_RELAXED_TE

Phase geometry, layout inline. Manual: SRC-003 p.305.

Marks a strip of the body of revolution as a relaxed trailing edge. U is the radial parametric location and V0 and V1 the axial parametric limits, all between 0 and 1 with V1 greater than V0. ALL FOUR EDITIONS PRINT A SAMPLE THAT VIOLATES THEIR OWN BOUND, passing 20 for V1 where the table two lines above states values between 0 and 1. The fuselage sibling had the same error in the February edition and had it corrected to 0.5 in the three later ones; here it survives into all four. Recorded rather than acted on: the argument is a float under either reading, and the bounds this chapter states are not enforced anywhere in it.

u float
v0 float
v1 float
