Hello everybody,

I am working on my Masters thesis and I need to create an o-grid mesh for the NASA GA(W)-2 airfoil with a cavity at 10% of chord length to simulate a 'synthetic jet'. I created the geometry and started with the meshing but I can't seem to get any cells inside the cavity itself. Right now the mesh looks like in 'Mesh closeview.jpg' (1st picture) and' mesh.jpg' (farview, 2nd picture). I would ideally like it to be like in 'mesh2.jpg' (3rd picture), which I found in a paper doing a very similar study to mine. I know it seems like a simple problem, but I'm a bit new to Ansys I would really appreciate it if you could give me any advice on this.

Many thanks in advance,
Karim
