Tools to split one boundary into two #28642
-
Hi there, While using "Thermal Contact" for mutually contacting geometry, we need to find a way to turn the interface or intersection between two geometry into two different boundaries. But I'm stuck on how to do so while the two contacting objects are in different size, let's say, a cube with length of 1 and a cube with length 2. Do I have to cut the larger cube in this case? Any help will be much appreciated! |

Hello The contact interfaces do not have to match. If your mesh started out with the two cubes merged together, you can use the BreakMeshByBlockGenerator to split them |

Hello
The contact interfaces do not have to match.
If your geometries are cubes, the sidesets-generators in moose (under MeshGenerator) should easily add the new sidesets
