[snappyHexMesh] Snappy parameters "translation" -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

January 6, 2010, 12:28	Snappy parameters "translation"	#1
jajoju New Member Join Date: Oct 2009 Posts: 3 Rep Power: 16	Hello everybody I am working with snappyHexMesh since some month. Everything went fine so far but I have some questions to the parameters in the snappyHexMeshDict. Maybe I don't need them but I want to understand them. I looked at many threads but couldn't find an answer. So hopefully somebody knows what they mean! - maxLocalCells; how can I estimate how many cells fit on a processor? - in the layerControlls: -maxFaceThicknessRatio -maxThicknessToMedialRatio -minMedialAxisAngle; what is the medial axis? maybe somebody has a visual description for these parameters since I just don't want to play around with them in order to get a correct mesh. I would be a great help! Thanks to everybody reading this! Greetings Jakob
