Multiblock structured grid artifacts

      Hello,

      I am trying to produce a structured grid of a somewhat complicated structure (as it consists of multiple materials)

      The Blocking worked as intended but when I try to specify the nodes along the first edge, the number of nodes is transferred to other edges as well. Furthermore, some artificial grid-lines are also produced and I do not know why. 

      Other forum posts suggested to permanently delete the VORFN blocks, which did not help.

      I deleted and merged some blocks, might this lead to complications?

      What are possible fixes for this problem?

      Thanks in advance and best regards

      Hi, if you are using ICEM CFD please check edge to curve and face to surface association. If you are using any other software let me know.

      Exactly, I am working with ICEM. So if I have multiple shorter edges and one long along a single curve, like seen for the long vertical green block, I need to split the curve into smaller sections, correct?

      Thanks a lot

      When you split the blocks make sure to split through all. Also, check associations.
