[ANSYS Meshing] Structured Hexa Mesh

mare910 · September 2, 2012, 17:43

hey.
I am a beginner in ansys and i have some problems with meshing (i am using workbench- meshing). i can't get nice structured mesh (cubes), you can see on the pictures .because of this i could not connect bodies which have nice structured mesh with this one. I tried everything from mapped face meshing, edge and face sizing, without success. I am trying simulate a heat transfer and i have many plates that have very small tickness (0,3mm). any advice? thanks

In Design modeler, you have to slice the geometry into smaller parts with a rectangular appearance. From the small parts, form a new part.
Afterwards, the ansys mesher should be able to fit a hexa mesh into the geometry.
