How do you intend hex meshing the inside region of the main block? Ie between the large round hole and many smaller holes? I can see a way to quad pave in Ansys Meshing, but trying to block that is going to be "fun". However, with a hex mesh you can control the pore mesh, but at the (very high penalty) of not being able to easily grow the cell size into the free flow region away from the pores/jets.Â
