September 2, 2012, 15:39	Explain GMSH element sizing methods	#1
spitfire New Member Viggy Palaniappan Join Date: Jul 2012 Posts: 10 Rep Power: 13	I have an aerofoil in a circular farfield and want to create meshes of varying element size in GMSH. I've been using the a) geometry file to change the element size @ certain points and b) the mesh element size factor tool in the GUI and c) the refine by splitting option in the toolbox. Can someone explain why there are three options/what do they do and how to systematically create a series of meshes? I'd love some help please =)
