Meshing rules

cfxmar · August 24, 2009, 08:21

Hello,

I´m meshing a geometry with CFX-Mesh to simulate waves and wind.
I have done some tutorials but I still don´t know if there is any rule to know how to specify mesh settings (Body spacing, Face spacing, expansion factor, etc). I just imagine it depends on the dimensions of the geometry.

¿Could kindly someone advise me?

Thank you in advance

Cfxmar.

A good place to start is the best practices guide to numerical accuracy in the CFX documentation. These are general recommendations, you will find that your exact simulation may have tighter or laxer requirements depending on the exact simulation.
