Data Center Components

Data Center Components - Tile

Tile enables you to create geometry and boundary conditions to represent a tile.

Name	The Name appears in the Project Manager window, history tree, and 3D Modeler window.
Number of Tiles	Number of Tiles specifies the number of tiles to create.
Tile Location	Under Tile Location, specify the plane on which to create the tiles. Also, enter the x, y, and z start and length location to define the object's size.
Free Area Ratio	Free Area Ratio specifies whether the tiles have the same free area ratio or varying ratios. See Specifying Varying Free Area Ratios below for more information on specifying varying ratios.
Duplicate Tile Axis	Duplicate Tile Axis specifies the direction along which additional tiles are aligned.

Specifying Varying Free Area Ratios

When Varying is enabled, click Edit to open the Free Area Ratio dialog box. For each tile listed, enter a value to define its free area ratio.
