TE Max Angle in AutoGrid? -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

May 10, 2015, 11:25	TE Max Angle in AutoGrid?	#1
cbrian New Member Brian Join Date: Feb 2015 Posts: 15 Rep Power: 11	I'm trying to mesh a compressor rotor stage in AutoGrid. The mesh quality looks good, but I am required to run it through an in-house program to look at the grid metrics. I have been having an issue where my "Max Trailing Edge Angle" is too high - I can't get it below 9.4 degrees but it is supposed to be under 8 degrees. As a suggestion to fix this issue the program says: "Increase nte or reduce te_angle or combination of these". I'm guessing this has something to do with the skewness around the TE but no matter what I do to the grid there it doesn't improve much. There's no additional documentation - does anyone know what this metric is referring to?
