Assign blower type 1.

Parameters:

faceslist

List of modeler.cad.elements_3d.FacePrimitive or of integers containing faces ids.

inlet_facemodeler.cad.elements_3d.FacePrimitive, int or list

Inlet faces.

fan_curve_pressurelist

List of the fan curve pressure values. Only floats should be included in the list as their unit can be modified with fan_curve_pressure_unit argument.

fan_curve_flowlist

List of the fan curve flow value. Only floats should be included in the list as their unit can be modified with fan_curve_flow_unit argument.

blower_powerstr, optional

blower power expressed as a string containing the value and unit. Default is “0W”.

blade_rpmfloat, optional

Blade RPM value. Default is 0.

blade_anglestr, optional

Blade angle expressed as a string containing value and the unit. Default is “0rad”.

fan_curve_pressure_unitstr, optional

Fan curve pressure unit. Default is “n_per_meter_sq”.

fan_curve_flow_unitstr, optional

Fan curve flow unit. Default is “m3_per_s”.

boundary_namestr, optional

Name of the recirculation boundary. The default is None, in which case the boundary is automatically generated.

Returns:

ansys.aedt.core.modules.boundary.common.BoundaryObject

Boundary object when successful or None when failed.
