ICEM Stretching

danillocafaldo · January 14, 2011, 06:12

Hi Guys,

I'm working with ICEM and a have a geometry that need a y-stretched mesh in a 2D region. It must look like a coarse mesh at the top and bottom and fine at the middle.

I don't want to use 3 blocks, but a single block with this characteristic.
I can't find a rule that do this. I've tried lots of combinations (exponential, cossine,...).

Am I forgetting something? Maybe wrong parameters.
Can anyone help me?

I will appreciate any help.

Regards

Hi,
at edge mesh parameters you can select the "From-Graphs" option for Mesh law. This pops up a new window, where you can define the bunching law you want or select e.g. "Functions->Parabola Middle".
