Screen dialog box (Flow/ESC/Multiphysics)

Name
Name Sets a name for the simulation object.Description opens an editor that lets you type a description for the simulation object.
Destination Folder
Simulation Object Container Specifies the folder in the Simulation Navigator in which the boundary condition will be stored.The list includes the root container and existing folders that you created using the New Folder command. Examples of a root container include Load Container, Constraint Container, and Simulation Object Container.
Folder Manager Displays a hierarchical listing of existing folders.To create a new folder, right-click any level of the hierarchy and choose New Folder.
Screen Region
Group Reference Applies the boundary condition to the selected group. For more information, see Group Reference options.
Select Object Lets you select polygon face to define the extent of the screen.Excluded lets you remove individual entities from within your 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.
Parameters
Head Loss Lets you specify a Planar Head Loss type modeling object to define the dead loss caused by the screen. For more information, see Planar Head Loss.Select a modeling object from the list, or click Create Modeling Object to define a new modeling object.Click Edit to modify the specified modeling object.
Particle Tracking
Pass-Through Report Generates the ParticleAndImpactTrackingSummary.dat file which contains two tables:The Particle Tracking Summary table lists the number of injected and ejected particles in total for your model and per boundary condition.The Particle Surface Impact and Screen Pass-Through Tracking Report table lists the number of particles that impact walls in your model per injection boundary condition and the number of particles that pass through screens per injection boundary condition.The file is generated in the simulation’s run directory.
