Hi All,
Instead of converting entire tetrahedron mesh to polyhedron can we convert a specific tetrahedron cell zone to a polyhedron in FLUENT.

Or please suggest in which tool we can do this.


Thank you

I don't think the 'Convert to Polyhedra' tool in Fluent lets you pick and choose which zones to convert. If you want that level of flexibility, I suggest starting with the meshing tool within Fluent (aka Fluent Meshing) and building your grids there. Within the Fluent meshing tool, you can specify the type of volume fill for each zone (ex tet fill for zone 1, and poly fill for zone 2).
