      Hello everybody,

      I'm trying to learn how to mesh bodies with the "cut cell" method but I do not find where to activate this method in CFD Preppost... Is this a license problem ? I checked several times, my model is well prepared (multiple parts, topology shared...)

      Thanks in advance...

        Hi again,

        It seems that the cut cell method is for "cfd enterprise" licence user only, but I checked it and I already have it.

      Cutcell was under Assembly meshing in older versions of Ansys Meshing but was removed in about R19. The poly-hexcore option in Fluent Meshing is an improved replacement, or for multiphase flows pure poly can be better.
