"hexahedral meshes will give more accurate solutions, especially if the grid lines are aligned with the flow"
does this statement apply to turbulent flow as well? because, In a turbulent flow due to random motion of eddies, there is no specific direction of flow, at a point,, unlike laminar flow, where a direction is well defined. |

thank yous chris.
So, theoretically speaking in DNS there won't be this advantage of hexahedral over tetra.? right? |
