Objective:

How to calculate the surface area of your implicit body? How to calculate the surface area of your mesh? How to calculate the surface area of a profile?

​
Applies to:

  • Surface Area

​
Procedure:

1. Start with the geometry you want to calculate. 2. Add a Surface Area block.
    • Drag and drop an implicit body, mesh, or profile, into the Body input field
      • Look at the calculated area in the top right of the block. This value is the surface area.
And that’s it! You’ve successfully calculated the surface area of your geometry. An example showing how to use the Surface Area block to calculate a body's surface area. Are you still having issues? Contact the support team, and we’ll be happy to help!
