NX9.0.3.4 Analysis Tools

[cswain54]

I am trying to use the face analysis tools in NX to analyse the smoothness of an aerofoil surface.

I have looked at multiple tools including "dynamic deviation analysis", "face curvature", "grid analysis" and "radius".

The one that I have decided is most relevant for my application is the face curvature tool, however when I turn off all the other analyses in the part navigator tree there is still an analyis graphic covering the aerofoil surface in the geometry window!

Is there a hidden menu somewhere that I cannot see that includes the "radius" command?

The reason I ask is because this is the only tool not displaying in the part navigator!

Otherwise is there a way to reset (turn off) all analysis tools used in an NX model, so that I can add just the face curvature?


Kind regards,

What you see is a display mode and not a object which could appear in the part navigator.
( No, that is not consistent with how other analysis methods work...)

Right click in the graphics window and select Display mode - Shaded with edges ( Display Mode was renamed into "Rendering Style" at some point in time.)
- The bottom line of that pull out has the option "Face analysis", - which is what you are looking at now.

Regards,
Tomas

That is true that I am viewing the analysis in "face analysis" mode, however the issue is that multiple analysis results are showing on top of each other and I cannot find the object in the tree to turn off in order to view only the face curvature analysis!

Start up the analysis that you want to turn off and deselect all the faces.

It was the "radius" face analysis that I had to turn off.

NX would not allow me to deselect all faces but I was able to select a small face elsewhere in the model so the issue has now been avoided!

THANKS AS ALWAYS.
