Hello everyone,

I have quarter fluid body includes imprint faces and periodic regions as shown in pics. I had meshed the body but the quality was poor. Please I need a help to improve the meshing, any hint or suggestion will be valuable to me. thank you in advanced

Dissect the part into 2 bodies as shown in the attached picture.
Than mesh the revolved body using sweep method with manual target and source (as shown in red and greenish colors in the picture). after that mesh the remaining body with multizone method.

For periodicity add a match control beforehand.
Don`t forget to have both bodies in the same part with shared topology if you want the mesh to be conformal

Dear Tom,
Thank you very much for replying and such a unique solution. unfortunately, I couldn't sweep the body. Mesh shows no sweep-able bodies except for the small part. Here what I did and the mesh failed. Thank you in advanced.
