Hi, what effect of split edge on the blocked mesh in ICEM? The mesh is still the same after the edge is set to spline,

 

Thanks you,

can you please insert some images.

hi, please see these two figures: In the second figure, the edges associated with the circle is split using spline method. But the mesh dose not change.

split edge is to insert node which we can use for aligning edges correctly. it does not increase any node on edge. 

for increasing nodes, please use meshing parameters - edge param

if you geometry is simple, i would suggest you to use ansys meshing which will give you a lot of benefits.

Thank you for your suggestions. 

I just don't understand the function of split edge. Do you know where can I find examples of using split edge to better align the edges?
