I have a model of a helix with rectangular crossection. I have applied boundary layer to the four required faces using the parameters below. After that i applied the edge mesh and face mesh. When applying the face mesh face 4 and 12 of the geometry contains 4 skewed elements. If i continue further I am sure to end up with a very bad mesh.
The parameters are: SOFTWARE: Gambit 2.3.6 Boundary Layer First Row: 0.001 Growth Factor: 1.2 Rows: 2 Depth: 0.0022 Internal Continuity: ON Wedge Corner Shape: ON Transition Pattern: 1:1 Faces: face 1,2,4 and 12 EDGE MESHING Interval Size: 0.5 FACE MESH Tri-Pave Interval Size: 0.5 The file is located at http://www.sendspace.com/file/rb4yyq Kindly help me out with this project. I need it as soon as possible. |

*on faces 1 & 2, set all vertices as END (Mesh / face / Set Face Vertex Type )
* Splitting your domain into subdomains would help, and you could handle your geometry with hexa
