TP Nozzle

Back to reference Back to index

The Nozzle preset will compress or expand a stream of particles according to the size of the in and out openings of the nozzle. The preset can be used together with TP Tube for simulation of expanding and compressing nozzles within a tubesystem. During compression or expansion an acceleration can be applied.

On: Activates the Preset. This parameter can be easily animated to switch the emitter on and off as needed

Particle Group: Thinking Particles group that will be used

Input Radius: Radius of the input opening of the nozzle

Output Radius: Radius of the output opening of the nozzle

Length: Length of the Nozzle

Acceleration: Acceleration of particles inside of the nozzle, usualy positive when the nozzle output opening is smaller then the input opening

Strength: Applied force to direct the particles to the output opening depending on the radius
