When you guys refine your mesh, do you do it in the program you generated your mesh in or can you do it in Fluent?

In which software you are creating the mesh, or you are using your own code? To validate your CFD results with the available experimental results or numerical data, one has to refine our mesh. That's why, Grid Independence study has been done. Best of luck!!! |

You can refine the mesh in Fluent using the adaption tool in the ADAPT menu, it work fairly well, at least for tetra meshes.
If you over did it with the meshing you can also do coarsening of the mesh, or try the conversion to polyhedrals -> found under Mesh. Greetz Jim |

Except from the last 5 Options they are all for mesh refinement, it depents on what you want.
If you want to create refinement boxes, the Region option is your choise. |
