Panel Ray Source dialog box

Name
Name	Specifies the name of the panel ray source.
Description	Specifies the description for the panel ray source.
Destination Folder
Simulation Object Container	Specifies the folder in the Simulation Navigator in which to store the acoustic panel ray source.The list includes the root container and folders that you created using the New Folder command in the Simulation Object Container.
Folder Manager	Displays a hierarchical list of folders.To create a new folder, right-click any level of the hierarchy and choose New Folder.
Model Objects
Defines the support for the panel ray source. You can select faces of 2D fluid elements or refer to an existing group that contains faces of 2D fluid elements.
Elements to Create Panel Ray Source On	Lets you select faces of 2D fluid elements for the panel ray source.
Group Reference	Lets you select the groups of free faces of fluid elements to apply a panel ray source.For more information, see Group Reference options.
Select Object	Lets you select the FE entities on which to apply the panel ray source.Excluded:Lets you remove individual entities from within the selected object.
Stacked Smart Selector Methods	Opens the Smart Selector Methods dialog box where you can specify a progression of smart selection filters.For more information, see Smart Selector Methods dialog box.
Magnitude
Specifies the constant complex excitation with real and imaginary parts, constant complex excitation with magnitude and phase angle, or the frequency-dependent complex field values.
Magnitude Type	Sets the type of magnitude. You can choose Power, Pressure, or Intensity.
Power in dB	Appears when Magnitude Type is set to Power.Lets you enter Real/Imaginary, Magnitude/Phase, or Field values in dB with respect to the standard power reference (1.E-12 Watt).
Pressure in dB	Appears when Magnitude Type is set to Pressure.Lets you enter Real/Imaginary, Magnitude/Phase, or Field values in dB with respect to the standard pressure reference (2.E-5 Pascal).
Intensity in dB	Appears when Magnitude Type is set to Intensity.Lets you enter Real/Imaginary, Magnitude/Phase, or Field values in dB with respect to the standard intensity reference (1.E-12 Watt/m2).
Real	Appears when Power, Pressure, or Intensity is set to Real/Imaginary.Sets the real component value of the selected magnitude type.
Imaginary	Appears when Power, Pressure, or Intensity is set to Real/Imaginary.Sets the imaginary component value of the selected magnitude type.
Magnitude	Appears when Power, Pressure, or Intensity is set to Magnitude/Phase.Sets the magnitude value of the selected magnitude type.
Phase	Appears when Power, Pressure, or Intensity is set to Magnitude/Phase.Sets the phase angle value of the selected magnitude type.
Specify Field	Appears when Power, Pressure, or Intensity is set to Field.Specifies the frequency-dependent complex field values.For information about included options, see Additional magnitude options.
Scale Factor	Appears when Power, Pressure, or Intensity is set to Field.Sets the scaling of values present in the field.
Direction
Reverse Source Orientation	When the Reverse Source Orientation check box is selected, the software reverses the direction of the source.
Show direction of orientation vectors	Displays the orientation of the source.
Time Delay
Enable Time Delay	Defines the time delay of the panel ray source.
Value	Appears when the Enable Time Delay check box is selected.Sets the constant time delay value. For more information, see Additional magnitude options.
