Install the Flow Science License Server utility on the host PC or designated network server. Load the valid license file provided by the vendor.
The Fractional Area/Volume Obstacle Representation () method allows engineers to embed complex 3D CAD geometries directly into simple rectangular grids. This eliminates the need for labor-intensive body-fitted mesh generation. In version 11.0.4, the algorithm features improved geometry recognition at thin walls and tight fillets, preventing fluid leakage across solid boundaries.
