      In Discovery 2024R2, you can set the mesh metrics monitored during the solve and specify limits for those metrics. After meshing, you are notified if any selected meshing criteria are not met.

      For Fluids simulations, those include:

      • Orthogonal quality (on by default) – lower limit (default 0.1)
      • Skewness (off by default) – upper limit (default 0.95)
      • Aspect ratio (off by default) – upper limit (default 20)

      Default mesh metrics are set in the in the Physics Settings, but you can also specify mesh metrics for this particular simulation in the Simulations Options.

      The video explains how to use the Fluid Mesh Quality option in Discovery Refine stage to check and improve mesh quality.
