The mesh can now be converted to two dimensions.
There are special requirements in STAR-CCM+ for three-dimensional meshes that are to be converted to two-dimensional. These are:
The mesh imported for this tutorial was built with these requirements in mind. Were the grid not to conform to the above conditions, it would have been necessary to realign the region using the transformation and rotation facilities in STAR-CCM+.
Once this is done, the mesh conversion will take place and the new two-dimensional mesh will be created. Note that the mouse rotation option is suppressed for two-dimensional scenes.
