Running time for Butterfly #414

Open oldrr opened 4 years ago

oldrr commented 4 years ago

Hello

I'm new to butterfly, and following the tutorial and testing the example 01_0_outdoor_airflow.

I have a decent computer with i7-9850H CPU and 32G ram.

During the snappy hex mesh component, it took like half an hour to run. and its not a very complex geometry. just a couple blocks.

Just wondering, its normal to take that long to run? or i have done something wrong. I do have changed the RHINO unit to Meters as well.

Thanks

I have the same problem.

image Hi, @Danajieun @oldrr The default setting of outdoor airflow example used refine region for volume meshing refinemet. You can disconnect the compotent to wind tunnel compotent, the running time will decrease.

it works, thanks! 😉
