Mesh Block Creation in curved weir cross section?

vagelisfot · September 9, 2024, 07:16

Hello,
I have the below weir cross section that makes a slight curve and it the end there is a rectangular bucket flip. I need to have 2 meshes of 0.3 m dimension in order to be represented exactly what it is. But the problem is that i have a sum of 70.000.000 cells that the half of them are not at all useful (are practically on the gap). How is this possible to make mesh with less mesh cells in order to reduce simulation time?
Thanks a lot

You can import STL file as meshing component.
