Hi,

May I ask how to test mesh quality at CFX?

Thanks!

All of the meshing tools have options to measure mesh quality. CFD-Post can also measure mesh quality.

Doing a test of mesh quality versus results accuracy for your case is the best way of establishing what mesh quality your simulation requires.

Is it possible to get mesh quality information in CFX pre, so there is no need to import any cfx file in any meshing software just for checking quality. There is option to get cell count in Mesh tab but cant see any option for quality.

This ia very late post. Sorry. But there is an option to check. After running for 1st iteration, we will get that. Even before that also, we can get that quality. But I dont know that option.
