Fan Segmentation dialog box
| Operation Name | |
|---|---|
| Sets the name of the fan segmentation. | |
| Segment Definition | |
| Maximum Computation Frequency | Sets the maximum computation frequency in Hz. |
| Sound Speed | Sets the speed of sound for the acoustic medium. |
| Maximum Segment Size | Displays the maximum fan blade segment size, which is computed using the formula:where: = Fan blade segment size (mm) = Speed of sound = Maximum computation frequency (Hz) = Number of segments per wavelength = 4Note: The computed segment size will be smaller than the acoustic wavelength and will be rounded down to the nearest millimeter. |
| Fan Rotation Axis (around Z from X to Y) | |
| Specify CSYS | Lets you specify or modify the fan rotation axis coordinate system. A fan noise source rotates around the Z-axis of the specified axis system from X to Y (right-hand rule).For more information, see CSYS dialog box. |
