Set Up Your Tutorial Project
The Simulate-flow-and-filtration-in-the-complete-filter folder contains three folders:
- The Input-Data folder contains:
- The CAD structure in *.stl format, consisting of 5 parts: BasePlate.stl, Cap.stl, InnerSupportMesh.stl, OuterSupportMesh.stl, and Pleat.stl.
- The particle size distribution of the test dust, given as a *.txt file with two columns in ISO-12103-1-A3-Medium.txt.
- An Excel sheet that contains the fractional filtration efficiencies of the filter media: FractionalFiltrationEfficiencies.xlsx.
- The Results-M2M folder contains the results for this tutorial provided by Math2Market (M2M), described below.
- The Results-User folder is empty. We recommend that, before starting to work through this tutorial, you set the Results-User folder as project folder in GeoDict.
Change Project Folder to Results-User
For this, in the GeoDict GUI, select File > Choose Project Folder > Select Project Folder and navigate to the folder Results-User. In this way, the result files created when running the tutorial will not overwrite the files provided by Math2Market, even when using the same names.

Content of Results-M2M Folder
The 6 files and 2 folders inside the folder Results-M2M are described in order of their appearance in the tutorial:
- The CompleteFilter.gdt file is the GeoDict structure that results from the Import CAD Files step.
- CompleteFilterWithInletAndOutlet.gdt contains the GeoDict voxel structure after the Pre-Processing Steps.
- CompleteFilterFlowSimulation.gdr is the result file of the Simulate Flow step. The corresponding subfolder CompleteFilterFlowSimulation/ contains the computed data. The CompleteFilterFlowSimulation.gps file contains the dialog settings for this simulation.
- CompleteFilterLifetime.gdr is the result file of the Simulate Multi-Pass Test step. The corresponding subfolder CompleteFilterLifetime/ contains the computed data. The CompleteFilterLifetime.gps file contains the dialog settings for this simulation.

Important! Default settings can vary between the different GeoDict editions, such as the Filtration edition or the Electrochemistry edition. To obtain the same results as presented in this tutorial, set the default settings to the Filtration edition by selecting Settings → Reset Current Settings to Built-In Settings → Filtration Edition from the menu bar.
