Hi, I am a mechanical engineering student a part of a group of students, we are working on a project that involves refrigeration cycle modeling and simulation, I am recently facing a problem while meshing the evaporative condenser geometry using fluent its Decsa evaporative-condenser, the problem is that Fluent needs tons of Ram to finish the volume mesh, so I have got an idea of could I mesh each part separately? I have some YouTube tutorials where the instructor is meshing the geometry in ansys mechanical each part separately, is it possible?

If someone could help and needs more information, I would happily share it.

Hello, 

yes, you can do this, but you will end up with non-conformal interfaces at the mesh connections. See 6.12. Modifying the Mesh to learn how to append a mesh to a Fluent case setup.
