discretize.CylindricalMesh.face_areas

property CylindricalMesh.face_areas

Face areas for the entire mesh.

This property returns a 1D vector containing the areas of all mesh faces organized by x-faces, y-faces, then z-faces; i.e. faces normal to the radial, azimuthal, then vertical direction. Note that for symmetric meshes, there are no y-faces and calling the property will return only the x and z-faces. To see how the face areas corresponding to each component are computed, see face_x_areas, face_y_areas and face_z_areas.

Returns:

(n_faces) numpy.ndarray

Areas of all faces in the mesh
