mesh generation for reactive distillation tray

Adila Anbreen · June 1, 2013, 06:01

hello,
i am new to ansys fluent and working on it for my msc thesis.. i have geometry of reactive distillation tray column and now i want to mesh this plate but i am having error of "meshing process ran out of memory"
i have tried all meshing methods( automatic, patch conforming and patch independent) but same error with all methods.
can anyone help me to solve this meshing problem...
here is the geometry
