What is Dirty CAD? = Acollection of CAD parts that need to be combined into a single surface for meshing Examples include automotive underhoods and complex assembles, e.g. generators _ In such cases, individual components often do not fit together perfectly, i.e. their volumes overlap or surfaces potentially interfere with each other. A very detailed CAD part that contains too much detail for CAE analysis _ Such parts need to be de-featured prior to constructing a computational mesh . ACAD part that contains internal or external geometrical details that are not relevant to the CAE simulation and need to be discarded ~ €xample: ship structural internals when conducting a hydrodynamic resistance calculation - An assembly of parts containing gaps where fixtures (welds, screws, rivets, etc.) are to be placed. Without closure these gaps are likely to prevent meshing or can lead to features significantly smaller than the domain of interest.
