Invalid axisymmetric mesh with nodes lying below the x-axis
3 Attachment(s)
Hi,
I am trying to do a 2D axisymmetric flow analysis. I am facing with an issue in fluent where it shows an error saying: "Invalid axisymmetric mesh with nodes lying below the x-axis". But I am sure that my geometry ends on the x-axis and there is nothing below it. I have attached pictures for reference. You can also check the mesh that I have made. Kindly advice on How to solve this? Thankyou Edit: I have found in mesh check fluent says under Domain Extents: that my geometry starts from negative y-coordinates. So I presume that somehow some of my geometry is below x-axis (no idea how). And the solution was to move my mesh up so that nothing is below x-axis. To move it up it seems I have to use some commands like fix mesh, or mesh translate, Both of which I do not know how to do. Since I am new to this I kindly ask for guidance with steps as to how to use these commands in fluent, what to type exactly in the console command window to move my mesh up. Thankyou. |

Thank you, I found it.
In order to set my lower edge boundary as axis, is there any rule that whatever edge I'm setting as axis should be exactly on the x-axis? Or can it be a little away above the x-axis and not exactly on it? |
