External pressure loading

To transform CFD data, acoustic, or force loads from external result files into Simcenter Nastran loads with Model and Load Pre-processing:

1. Specify an input file to process the external result data.

2. Map the result data from a source to a target mesh.

3. Execute other various data processing operations, such as Fan Noise Segmentation, Time Signal Processing, Time to Waterfall, and Pressure to Force.

4. Execute the Model and Load Pre-processing pre-solver that writes out files in different formats, including an HDF5 file.

5. Visualize the results with a preconfigured post-processing view before extracting the forces stored in the HDF5 file and using them in a Simcenter Nastran solution.Note: The HDF5 file is supported by SOL 108 and SOL 111 solutions with standard FEM or FEM Adaptive Order (FEMAO) method.
