[ANSYS Meshing] Recreate polar mesh from article

BarDror · September 14, 2014, 06:27

Hi all!

I am trying to create a mesh based on an article and I got stuck. The original mesh was not made by Ansys. It is the cross-section of the solder paste during stencil printing process. The mesh's thickness is one element. I added the figures from the article. I also added the progress I have made yet.
Is it even possible to make the same mesh?
If not then how can I make inflation for the edges of the triangle part? I have already made inflation there, but it was rectangle and I would like triangles.

Thanks for your support!

Hi
In the shared edge between tri mesh and mapped mesh you must have an edge! For this you must use "form a new part" in ANSYS DESIGN MODELER!
And about inflation! I think it's better for inflation that used mapped mesh! Tri mesh isn't sufficient for boundry layer mesh!
