[ICEM] Prism ortho weight option removed

siw · September 9, 2015, 02:07

Hi,

In ICEM CFD v16.1 the ortho weight option has been removed from Mesh > Global Mesh Parameters > Prism Meshing Parameters. I am not going to install v16.2, so it may also be missing there as well and I cannot recall if it was in v16.0.

Was this a mistake by the developers or has the feature been intentionally removed, if so what is the alternative?

Thanks

Well spotted. So it been moved all the way down to the Smoothing Options. In v15.0 and older it was listed between Min Prism Quality and Fillet Ratio further up the list.
