[GAMBIT] Conformal Mesh

felicemastronzo · February 17, 2012, 05:37

Hi all,

I have imported in Gambit a geometry made by many separate volumes. It is possible to connect the different volumes (not to unite them) in order to have a conformal mesh?

Regards

Hi,

What solver will you use?
In FLUENT, you can combine non-conformal meshes and/or make them conformal. Other tools have similar options.

I need a conformal swept mesh between 2 adjacent volumes in order to have a 2.5D dynamic re-meshing. So I need to create the conformal mesh in directly in Gambit. How can I do it if I have some adjacent but independent volumes? It is possible to "connect" them in Gambit in order to obtain a conformal sweep between the 2 volumes? If yes, how?

Regards

This is indeed the solution.

Felice, did this solve your question?
