Distance between two edges

    • Sam Fares

      Hello,


      I selected two edges. i know the distance between them is 0.125. So 


      1. What  does the Distance Between Centroids mean?


      2. What is the Centroid Y mean?


      3. Is there a way to measure the distance between a Vertex and edge in Ansys Mech?


      4> Is there a way to see the distance between two edges at bottom of the screen without looking at the selection information in Ansys Mech?


       


      Regards,


      Sam

      Hi For line centroid is distance between line midpoint to global origin.
      In Design modeler you can measure distance between point and line using Analysis tool.
      As far as i know selecting two lines will only give total length.

      Sam fares, can you please advise where to find this tab?


      Was looking at it yesterday but could not find it.


      Thank you!

      Hi KaitovanTo find the tool that Sam said:nGo to: Tools bar(top of the design modeler page) --> Analysis Tools --> Distance FindernYou can find distance between any edges by using this tool and applying on the left side of the page.nBut I don't know how to find distance between an edge and a plane like xy plane.n
