Hi Markus, the steps to create the conformal...

Hi Markus,

the steps to create the conformal interface are:
1) create the hexa mesh in the structured region and a full tetra mesh (i.e. without prisms) in the unstructured region
2) create a...

Just a quick update on this topic as someone may be interested: finally, I managed to create a beautiful conformal interface between a tetra-with-prisms and an hexa mesh for a quite complex geometry...

Hi Stuart,

the normals orientation is ok and so is the shell mesh quality (lowest quality at about 0.45) but I still get the same problem.
I am trying to run my simulation using another meshing...

Hi Stuart,

as promised I am here to bother you again :)
I am able to use your technique in simple test cases but I am really struggling to use it in my actual geometry.
The main problem is that...

Hi Stuart,

just to let you and the others know that your method worked for me on a simple pipe with a single layer of prisms (attached picture); now let's do the hard work on the "real" thing....

Now it is clear, I think my first option is going to be your method, because it seems more reasonable to not create the prism layer in the structured domain.

Thank you again

Hi Stuart,

Thank you for the advice; I can see your point but one of the requirements for generating the prisms also in the hexa region is that the overall prisms height should be less than the...

Hi Scribby,

I am trying to use this approach in a simple test case with the aim of using it for my "real" complex geometry.
I am able to correctly create the prism layer both in the tetra and in...

Hi Stuart,

I am following your approach (many thanks for the tips!) and actually I feel that I am close to obtain my goal :)
I have created the conformal patch mesh on my unstructured region, but...

What do you think about interrupting generation of the prisms just before the interface in the unstructured domain? in this way the interface is only between tetra and hexa and should not be...

Hi PeterDaniel,

I have the same problem, it generates the prisms only on the tetra mesh even if the height of the prism layer is less than the height of the first cell in the hexa mesh.
I am...
