prfar#
- Mapdl.prfar(lab='', option='', phi1='', phi2='', nph1='', theta1='', theta2='', ntheta='', val1='', val2='', val3='', **kwargs)#
Prints pressure far fields and far field parameters.
APDL Command: PRFAR
- Parameters:
- lab
Parameters to print:
PRES - Acoustic parameters
PROT - Acoustic parameters with the y-axis rotated extrusion
- option
Print option, based on the specified print parameter type:
- phi1, phi2
Starting and ending φ angles (degrees) in the spherical coordinate system. Defaults to 0.
- nphi
Number of divisions between the starting and ending φ angles for data computations. Defaults to 0.
- theta1, theta2
Starting and ending θ angles (degrees) in the spherical coordinate system. Defaults to 0 in 3-D and 90 in 2-D.
- ntheta
Number of divisions between the starting and ending θ angles for data computations. Defaults to 0.
- val1
Radius of the sphere surface. Used only when Option = SUMC, PHSC, SPLC, SPAC, PSCT, or TSCT.
- val2
When Option = SPLC or SPAC: Reference rms sound pressure. Defaults to 2x10-5 Pa.
- val3
When Lab = PRES: Thickness of 2-D model extrusion in the z direction (no default).
Notes
The PRFAR command prints pressure far fields and far field parameters as determined by the equivalent source principle. Use this command to print pressure and acoustic parameters. See the HFSYM command for the model symmetry and the HFANG command for spatial radiation angles.
To retrieve saved equivalent source data, issue the SET,Lstep,Sbstep,,REAL command.
