I am trying to make the mesh coarser in the streamwise direction. After that i am specifying the number of divisons on the edges as shown in the attached picture. But it is not having any effect on the mesh as the elements number and the mesh lengths are coming same for different edge sizing numbers. What can be the issue? Is it because the pipe is long? Previously i tried with a much shorter lenght and this method worked. Can someone please suggest how can i make the mesh coarser in the streamwise direction but keep it fine in the cross-section? I have attached the picture. thanks!<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/04\/16-04-2025-1744764706-mess_issue_streamwise_coarse.png\" alt=\"\" \/>&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-429067","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_forum_id":["27790"],"_bbp_topic_id":["429067"],"_bbp_subscription":["296506","39507"],"_bbp_author_ip":["129.11.145.115"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["429208"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["429208"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2025-04-16 19:01:48"],"_bbp_reply_count":["8"],"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":["0"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_engagement":["296506","39507"],"_btv_view_count":["119"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"]},"test":"scaboleeds-ac-uk"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/429067","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\/429067\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=429067"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
