Miscellaneous Boundary Condition Commands

Delete

The BC delete keyword combination is used to delete boundary conditions. The current list of all entities that can be deleted using this command were shown in Table 1. Coreform Cubit currently has no ‘undo’ command to ‘undelete’ a boundary condition deletion.

Delete {bc_type} [<id-range>|All]

Delete Boundary Conditions

Every set (and boundary condition within them) can be deleted at once by typing delete boundary conditions. This command will delete all boundary conditions from your model.

List

The List keyword combination is used to list boundary conditions. The current list of all entities that can be listed using this command was shown in Table 1. Coreform Cubit’s parser can evaluate boundary conditions given the entities they act on. For example, "List pressure in surface 1" will list all pressures that act on Surface 1.

List {bc_type} [<id-range>]

List Boundary Conditions

Every set (and boundary condition within them) may be listed at once by typing list boundary conditions. Coreform Cubit will list the number of sets and individual boundary conditions in your model. This command will list the total number of each type of set and boundary condition, including boundary conditions that are not a part of a BC set.

Draw

Draw {bc_type} {<id-range>|all}[Add]

The draw keyphrase allows a Coreform Cubit user to draw any type of boundary condition. This command will clear the graphics window of every part of the model except for the selected boundary condition. Using the add keyword will permit multiple boundary conditions to be drawn at the same time. Any combination of boundary conditions and entities that were valid for delete and list are also valid for draw.

Highlight

Highlight {bc_type} {<id-range>|All}

The highlight keyphrase allows a Coreform Cubit user to highlight any boundary condition. Highlighting a boundary condition will turn it bright orange and the vectors defining it will thicken. The highlight command is similar to the draw command.
