The quality, meshing speed and ease-of-use made the so-called “RK” mesh a big success and soon replaced the old standard particle mesh. The latter is still available in RealFlow, but only for legacy reasons. The RK mesh engine has been completely overhauled in RealFlow 2013 and is now simply called “Particle Mesh” in contrast to the “Grid Mesh”. Our new “Particle Mesh” tool provides two fundamental modes: isotropic and anisotropic.

Isotropic vs Anisotropic

In fluid dynamics, meshing is of particular importance, because it creates a 3D hull around the particle cloud to represent its surface. The surface approximation is done by basic elements, such as triangles.
