      This document describes the required settings for axisymmetric mesh morphing when using the Design Tool of the ANSYS Fluent Adjoint solver. More specifically, it covers a half model, but the steps could be applied to any cake-piece type of geometry. The important parts are that the size of the morphing region is slightly larger than the geometry and that you use invariance in theta direction for all motion directions. Keywords: ANSYS Fluent; Adjoint; Solver; axisymmetric; partial model; half model; symmetry; symmetric; mesh morphing; mesh deformation; mesh modification
