Perform automatic checks on CAD models, and identify potential issues with geometry that may slow down the meshing
process using the Verification and Comparison tools.
Many essential utility tools using HyperWorks-Tcl have been developed over the years to support Aerospace customers. A few tools have been collected and upgraded to
be compatible with this release.
It is convenient to apply aerospace loads and concentrated mass that is predefined at specific node ID’s from an Excel
file. This requires carefully numbering nodes with specific ID’s, which is a standard practice in aerospace.
Line loads allow total loads (forces and moments) to be applied in a distributed manner on nodes even though the load
is applied on geometry lines or set of nodes forming ordered edges.

Restriction: Only available in the Nastran
user profile.
From the menu bar, click Aerospace > Loads/BCs > Aero-Pressure Interpolation.
Select Batch.
Set up the unit conversion.
Define the global definition of pressure distribution.
Select the model input where the Cp will be interpolated.
Set up the model view for picture extraction.
In the table area, set up multiple sources, on which element set the pressure
will be mapped, name and ID of the load collector to be created and
interpolation method of the newly created pressure load with respect to the Cp
input.
Verify the newly created pressure in the report.
Creation of the table can be performed either by direct input from you or by
loading the configuration file.
