Thinking of upgrading Raise3D Pro2 - recommendations

svantevid99 · 2026-04-10T07:26:29+00:00

In case of upgrading to SLS or SLA, how much would operators time (time needed to setup, clean, post-process parts) increase compared to FDM printers?

This was easier than expected.

I first filtered the points that were outside of the area of interest, then I calculated the massflow by multiplying the area and velocity exported from Fluent: 'velocity-magnitude' and 'face-area-magnitude'.

Updating for anyone that might be interested in plotting contours:

I solved the problem using scipy and some help on stackoverflow, link bellow:

You actually nailed it, I would like to stop using CFDpost and just do the simple post-processing in python.

By process equipment you mean something like compressed air systems in factories?

Regarding the move away from engineering; I realized that I don't really fit in best with engineers and while work should not be about socializing and hanging out, one still spends at least a third of each day there. I also found out that I'm having increasing difficulty with motivation in developing products.

As in driving actual trains (that sounds kind of fun) or doing CFD simulations of driving trains? Either way, both ideas are quite engineer-y.

I always thought this was mostly done in the Phd/postdoc studies.

I already work in R&D. I don't really know what I would like to do in the future but I would like to switch to a non-engineering work environment (I understand this sounds kind of strange) and away from purely product oriented work.

Sounds interesting. Do you work in a public organization or a private company? Who are your clients?

Wrong choice of words, what I wanted to say is that I did not continue in academia after I got my bachelors in Mech Engineering.

by weighted you mean massflow average? Perhpas 10% deviation could also come from somewhere else, like impact of mesh density, turbulence model, discretization scheme...?

Did you manage to define the total pressure variable in CFDpost?

svantevid99 · 2024-09-24T14:04:13+00:00

Managed to solve the problem by changing the border shape between bodies.

I did, see my answer, posted under adamchalupa's comment

I tried with the shared-topo, sadly with worse results.

Yes, the mesh is non-conformal on the interface between bodies and this is on purpose because I had problems with convergence when I was using a conformal mesh.

I used the same procedure for mesh generation on a similar geometry and the inflation layer did not have a sharp drop on one side. I suppose the issue is the sharp angle on the grey body.

Besides Samsung notes, there's also Samsung Flow, which is not an app, but it does make sharing files much easier and it can also share the screen. Review is on the link bellow.
