Hi guys , I am modeling and analyzing a shell and tube heat exchanger using ANSYS Fluent . I would like to know where I could get guidance and content ablut using Ansys meshing specifically to produce a "unstructured tetrahedral mesh", I already have produced the mesh but I want to improve the quality of the mesh as my orthogonality quality and skewness are a bit low. I would like to know where I can get material to learn the approach to use ANSYS MESHING for fluids such as the application I have been given.

If you look in Learning there may be a course, otherwise click on Help in Ansys Meshing. You may need to use the workflow for sequential meshing (right click on body & mesh selected) to find that a I never remember what it's called!

Note, running dual fluid systems can be more complex than you realise. Depending on the purpose of the modelling you may find running one of shell or tube side to be sufficient.
