Hello everybody,

First I state that I searched a lot for a solution to my problem, here, ICEM Help, on Google, on YouTube, but couldn't find a solution.

For some the problem will be simple, but unfortunately I have only few 2D mesh experiences with ICEM, so I'm still learning how to use it.

The geometry is the one you can see in the first screenshot, it's a portion of a duct (~37°), and at the top there's a (I try to explain the best way I can) "reverse revolution" left by a cone, exactly at the center of the duct.

I would like to ask you some advice on the blocking strategy/edge-to-curve associations in order to obtain a good result.

I already tried something, but as a result I obtain what you can see in "screenshot_premesh" attachment, and I'm pretty sure that there's a wrong association of edges to curves, but I can't find a way to obtain a decent result


I will be very grateful if someone could help me, thank you in advance.
