Exporting STL Files
Select each Sub-mesh one by one in your inlet part (region1 and export them. Navigate to the upper menu File > Export > STL File (see figure 
).
- Repeat the surface mesh generation and STL export also for outlet region region2.
- Repeat the surface mesh generation and STL export also for all three valve plugs. A valve plug is not split into groups so it is not necessary to create a sub-mesh. Just export the whole surface mesh of the plug.
- Save your progress.
- BTW: The current state can be loaded anytime as an original file: “part5.hdf“.
- The valve preprocessing is finished now.
