macfly Senior Member François Grégoire Join Date: Jan 2010 Location: Canada Posts: 392 Rep Power: 17	I'm using ansys fluent 12.1.2. Is there a way to refine the mesh without any adaption? Refine the mesh over the entire domain independently of the solution ? Why would I want to do that? I'm modeling turbulence in a complex geometry and I'm having a hard time with the y+ being in the acceptable range everywhere. I want to start with a coarse mesh, refine it in Fluent, this way I can coarsen back the mesh if my y+ are too low in some places.
