Can we localise block splitting in certain regions rather than the full domain?

 

[Keyur Kanade]

Blocking usually used to get full hex mesh. So even if you localize it will be continuous hex mesh. You can use Y or C shape grids. You can search this forum for the same. 

Please go through help manual for more details

Thanks for your response. 

Yes but on localize, mesh quality gets decreases. 

[Keyur Kanade]

Use edge biasing.

I think there is confusion. 

I am using top-down approach for meshing. 

When we split the block, full domain gets split. But I want to split the particular blocks not want to propagate it full domain. However the issue is that splitting the particular block reduces the mesh quality.

Please check C type and Y type blocking.

Hello 

I am using ICEM CFD bottom-up approach. After creating 2D block, i want to extrude it for making 3D block. On using, all apppach, interactive , fixed distance and curve and point, it gets failed with error:"extrusion of faces failed"
