Hi im using ICEM and i want to create a tri mesh around an airfoil. so i imported my airfoil points (which automatically created my curves and airfoil surface for me). I then created my farfield and made a surface inside its bounds called fluid. However I cant get the fuid surface to see my airfoil. I tried using the trim surface function specifically the by curve method found in the "create/modify surface" tab under the "geometry" tab. However this created a strange looking cut of the airfoil (not matching the airfoils edges). Even still when i created my mesh it ignored the airfoil. Can someone please explain how to do this.
I've watched the videos posted on youtube for tetra meshing by simon and have read the posts such as "Complex 2D meshing on icem" in this forum but am still unable to get started please help me or explain to me where i can go to find this information. My deadline for this project is approaching quickly. Thanks for helping Last edited by josip76; May 29, 2011 at 20:28. |
