I am curious if anyone has recommendations for things I can do to speed up geometry import\/meshing\/solving for some complex geometry. The problem mainly comes in with the fins on the interior, which are quite thin (&lt;0.2mm) relative to their length and width (~100mmx300mm). I&#8217;ve simplified the fin shape somewhat and I would consider what remains essential for the flow analysis that I&#8217;m doing, but even loading the geometry in the fluent mesher took almost an hour. I&#8217;ve worked with Ansys products for a little over a year, but I haven&#8217;t had to work with geometry this fine that I couldn&#8217;t simplify or make some kind of assumption for. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-280746","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["11190","62"],"_bbp_author_ip":["23.223.149.174"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["535"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["280746"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27792"],"_bbp_engagement":["62","11190"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["1"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["280857"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["280857"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2023-04-24 05:18:47"]},"test":"benjamin-smithtradna-com"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/280746","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/280746\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=280746"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
