SCMTriInterWrapperMeshGenerator
Creates a mesh for the inter-wrapper around triangular subassemblies
Overview
This mesh generator creates the mesh were the SCM solution variables associated with the inter-wrapper live. The inter-wrapper is the flow area that wraps arround the subchannel sub-assemblies. The user needs to provide the "nrings" parameter which defines the number of sub-assemblies the inter-wrapper wraps around. For triangular sub-assemblies one nring would define one center sub-assembly and six neighboring ones. The number of cells in the -z direction is given by "n_cells". The distance of the sub-assemblies from eachother is given by the "assembly_pitch" parameter and the total length of the inter-wrapper in the -z direction is defined by the parameters: "heated_length","unheated_length_entry","unheated_length_entry". The size of each subchannel sub-assembly including the duct is defined by "flat_to_flat". Last, "side_bypass" is the extra size of the bypass for the side sub-assemblies. The center of the mesh is the origin.
