    Fluid guides are used to apply forces onto the simulation. They are like simple external forces but also seek to preserve the physically accurate flow of the fluid. The Guides panel allows you to adjust guiding forces globally, i.e. for the entire domain. Enabling the guides hints the fluid solver to use the more accurate, but also computationally more expensive pressure solving step.

    Even when there are no guiding objects baked or there is no guiding domain attached, the fluid solver will still perform the more expensive pressure guiding algorithm if guiding is enabled. It is therefore recommended to only enable Guides when there is a clear intention to use guiding in the simulation.

    Fluid guiding is an implementation of Primal-Dual Optimization for Fluids.

    Controls the lag of the guiding. A larger value (also known as the ‘alpha’ guiding value) results in a greater lag.

    尺寸

    This setting determines the size of the vortices that the guiding produces. A greater guiding size (also known as the blur radius or ‘beta’ guiding value) results in larger vortices.

    速度系数

    All guiding velocities are multiplied by this factor. That is, every cell of the guiding grid, which has the same size as the domain object, is multiplied by this factor.

    速度源

    Guiding velocities can either come from objects that move inside the domain or from other fluid domains.

      域

      When using another fluid domain as the guiding velocity source this domain may have a different resolution and may also be of a different type (e.g. the guiding domain is of type Gas while the actual domain with the guiding effect in it is of type Liquid).

      In order to use a domain as the velocity source, this domain needs to be baked already.

    引导父级

    When using Domain as the velocity source, this field serves to select the guiding domain object.

    Bake Guides, Free Guides

    This option is only available when using the cache type and when using Effector as the Velocity Source. Bake Guides writes vertex velocities of effector objects to drive. It is meant to be used before baking the fluid simulation.
