      Hello,


      When i set the num cells across gap to 10, the cells will be uniform across the thickness, however when i set it to 20, the element thicknesses are not uniform as shown below. Why? is there a way to control the uniformity? Thanks!

      Try setting Capture Curvature to No.  If that doesn't work, use Edge Sizing with Behavior Hard to force the spacing on the edges.

      Hi Peter,

      How can I get a minimum of 3 cells across my mid-surface (~1mm) gap? I've looked at other posts but it seems that it was from an older Ansys version. Thanks
