Set TYPE=LINE to create a cavity composed of the cavity surface defined in the model and its reflection through a line. See Figure 1. This option can be used only for two-dimensional cases.
Set TYPE=PLANE to create a cavity composed of the cavity surface defined in the model and its reflection through a plane. See Figure 2. This option can be used only for three-dimensional cases.
Set TYPE=ZCONST to create a cavity composed by the cavity surface defined in the model and its reflection through a line of constant z-coordinate. See Figure 3. This option can be used only for axisymmetric cases.
