[ICEM] Question about tetra mesh generation by ICEM

Hi,

I generate tetra mesh by ICEM. But the grids doesn't match with the surface well. Typically how to solve this problem?

Decrease max size on those surfaces. Can you please upload some pics?

Hi Far,

Thanks for your answer. I have solved that problem.

By the way, I'm doing CHT. Do I need to care about the tetra grids quality for the solid part? I use hexa grids for the fluid part and tetra grids for the solid part. ICEM shows that my hexa grids quality is about 0.6 but my tetra grids quality is only above 0.1. Do I need to improve on it?
