Sphagnum is on a distinguished road
Hi all,

Say that I have a 2d simulation with just a rectangle. I'd like to have the mesh be very fine near the bottom of the rectangle, and become increasingly larger as we move in the positive y direction. How is this done in fluent? The only thing I've found so far is the inflation method, but that isn't doing quite what I want- I ultimately need a triangular mesh and inflation always seems to force it to be rectangular.

Any and all input is much appreciated. Thanks!
