Create an interior surface wrap body

1. Click Surface Wrap Recipe .The Surface Wrap Recipe dialog box opens.

2. In the graphics window, select all the bodies that you want to surface wrap.

3. In the Surface Wrap Interior/Exterior group, select either Face and Normal Vector Toward the Interior or Interior Point from the surface wrap definition method list.

4. If you select Face and Normal Vector Toward the Interior:In the graphics window, select a face (1) that is on the surface wrap boundary.Use the Vector Constructor or the Inferred Vector list to define a normal vector (2) to the selected face that points toward the surface wrap interior.If you select Interior Point, use the Point Constructor or Inferred Point list to select or create a point (3) that is in the surface wrap interior.

5. In the Surface Wrap Resolution group, click Auto Calculate or enter a value in the Global Resolution box.

6. (Optional) To activate the automatic refinement on your surface wrap selection, select the Use Automatic Refinement check box.

7. Click OK.

8. (Optional) Add or create local resolution, contact prevention, and auto refinement constraints.

9. In the Simulation Navigator, right-click the surface wrap recipe node and choose Wrap.
