Final CAD fix (hopefully)

Finally, I got a smoothed surface mesh from the Octree mesher of the required element quantity and distribution and without any messages about holes . I haven't gone on and generated the TGlib AF Delaunay and Prisms just yet as the Octree was left to run overnight and I ant to get this issue fixed too re-run the Octree.
On inspection of the surface mesh at the fuselage/wing trailing edge interface I noticed 2 small curves which ICEM has followed with mesh elements (only about half a dozen elements). These 2 curves are in the original IGES file but should not be there. I've tried deleting them and re-running Build Topo but ICEM is finding them again. So they must be due to the surface. The surface image just shows the perspective that the zoomed-in wireframe image is viewed from and the yellow lines are due to me trying different things with the Build Topo and not in the final mesh. The wireframe image shows the wing trailing edge with the 2 curves (bold red) and the trailing edge surface (thin orange). So how can I get the 2 curves to follow the straight trailing edge surface? I think this needs to be done with one of the Geometry tools rather than a tolerance setting, but I've had no success with deleting/merging/creating surfaces. Thanks. |
