Hello

I'm trying to create a mesh in Icepak on a geometry with some fluid-solid boundaries aligned to the Cartesian grid, and some fluid-solid boundaries misaligned to the grid. The misaligned boundaries result in a sawtooth-like pattern at the solid-fluid boundary because the mesh is Cartesian by nature, which is seen in the attached images. This produces unphysical results in my CFD-simulation.

Is it possible to mesh using something like inflation layers in Icepak to generate a neat surface on the inclined surfaces? Or maybe it is possible to make a mesh consisting of different zones? I tried different techniques such as turning on/off O-grids, stair-stepped meshing and different Mesh types.

Hello,
We will respond to you in Meshing at solid/fluid boundaries misaligned to the grid ÔÇö Ansys Learning Forum
