Turbulence Zone (2D) Data Fields (InfoWorks)

Turbulence Zone (2D) objects are polygon objects which are used to represent the physical area in which eddy viscosity is to apply.

Note: To view all data relating to this object, use the Object Properties Window. These data fields are read-only in ICMLive Operator Client. Network objects are configured in InfoWorks ICM Ultimate and ICMLive Configuration Manager. Please refer to the InfoWorks ICM help for more details.

The following describes all the data which can be used to define a Turbulence Zone (2D).

Fields that are common to the majority of objects can be found in the Common Fields topic.

Turbulence model

The name of the Turbulence Model (2D) associated with this zone.

For a newly created turbulence zone, this is set to DEFAULT (a blank model assigned to the network). A list of all models available in the network can be displayed by clicking on the dropdown.

Exclude turbulence zone boundary when creating 2D mesh

Indicates if the turbulence zone boundaries are used as break lines for triangulation when creating a 2D mesh that incorporates the turbulence zone (2D).

This option is selected by default.

If this option is not selected, 2D mesh triangles are assigned to the turbulence zone (2D) containing their centroid. Aggregation ensures that all triangles within a given 2D element are assigned the same turbulence zone (2D).
