Advanced Permeability Option File Formats
The following are the file formats for this feature:
3D Per Mesh Element Permeability Value
This is the solved mu (i.e., the apparent permeability not the incremental permeability) from the 3D source design.
In the above example, SolidID, h, and E_DATA are keywords. “6” is the object ID. “14” is the number of elements in the object with ID “6”. “230”, “231”, etc. are element IDs.
Note that there could be multiple "blocks" of the above data if there are multiple nonlinear objects in the design, as illustrated below.
2D Per Mesh Element Permeability Value
This is the solved mu from the 2D source design. The format is
<number of total elements>
<objectID> <elementID> <X/R center position of element> <Y/Z center position of element> <mu>
For example, the following solved mu indicates that there is ONE object that has TWO mesh elements. The first element has a mu value of 2.7482 and the second element has a mu of 2.76553.
The following solved mu indicates a total of 16 mesh elements that belong to two objects.
