ghost_rider1145 is on a distinguished road
I am currently working on a internship, where i have to simulate the flow around an missile body for different Mach number having different AOA(Angle of Attack), now I have made the CAD model of the missile body on SOLIDWORKS 2021 and the computational domain part in ANSYS design modeler, when I tried meshing it previously it gave me and error for self-intersecting or close to intersecting surface mesh error, and I used the share topology function in SPACECLAIM to rectify it, but it was still taking a lot of time for a cuboid domain, so I reduced the size of the domain and the surface mesh went fine, but when I gave it for volume mesh it is stuck at 36% progress showing remeshing and it been there from past 6hrs or more, It been more than 4 weeks I am stuck with CAD and meshing only, I possible please tell me where the problem is located I am attaching all the required files here. And this is the message on Fluent console
