Hi all!

This is my first post and I ll try to be as clear as possible.
I am trying to construct a structured surface grid over a podded propulsor. http://prntscr.com/pgjxo


At the moment, I trying to figure out the grid for the surface of revolution between the two fins. The problem is the big difference in size (length)of these fins.
I suppose that the grid should be devided in two patches: back side of one grid to the face of the other. However, I dont what method should be appropriate: TFI and then elliptic PDEs?

Another solution would be the creation of a "collar" around the small fin and then an overall grid or devided again by two patches. Still dont know how to create the collar (hyperbolic PDEs?)

Thanks in advance guys!_
