discretize.CylindricalMesh.face_y_areas

property CylindricalMesh.face_y_areas

Areas of each y-face for the entire mesh.

This property returns a 1D vector containing the areas of the y-faces of the mesh. For a single y-face with edge lengths \(h_x\) and \(h_z\), the area is given by:

\[A_y = h_x h_z\]

Note that for symmetric meshes , there are no y-faces and calling this property will return an error.

Returns:

(n_faces_y) numpy.ndarray

A 1D array containing the y-face areas in the case of non-symmetric meshes. Returns an error for symmetric meshes.
