Update the main settings of the design.

Parameters:

gravity_dirint, optional

Gravity direction from -X to +Z. Options are 0 to 5. The default is 0.

ambient_temperaturefloat, str, BoundaryDict or dict optional

Ambient temperature. The default is 20. The default unit is Celsius for a float or string value. You can include a unit for a string value. For example, 325kel.

perform_validationbool, optional

Whether to perform validation. The default is False.

check_levelstr, optional

Level of check to perform during validation. The default is "None".

default_fluidstr, optional

Default fluid material. The default is "air".

default_solidstr, optional

Default solid material. The default is "Al-Extruded".

default_surfacestr, optional

Default surface material. The default is "Steel-oxidised-surface".

export_monitorbool, optional

Whether to export monitor data. The default is False.

export_sherlockbool, optional

Whether to export temperature data for Sherlock. The default is False.

export_directorystr, optional

Default export directory for monitor point and Sherlock data. The default is the current working directory.

gauge_pressurefloat, str, optional

Gauge pressure. It can be a float where “n_per_meter_sq” is assumed as the units or a string with the units specified. The default is 0.

radiation_temperaturefloat, str, optional

Set the radiation temperature. It can be a float (units will be “cel”) or a string with units. Default is 20.

ignore_unclassified_objectsbool, optional

Whether to ignore unclassified objects during validation check. The default value is False.

skip_intersection_checksbool, optional

Whether to skip intersection checks during validation check. The default value is False.

Returns:

bool

True when successful, False when failed.
