Hi,
I'm almost a new user of OpenFoam and I wish to know more about sHM.
I'm dealing with a simple geometry to better understand the meaning of the variables in snappyHexMeshDict (to apply them in a more complex case with an .stl geometry).
I focus attention on refinementSurfaces. I can't understand how sHM works with refinementSurfaces, in other words which is the meaning of level(min max)? How are they related to resolveFeatureAngle?
Maybe these are basic questions, but I would like to avoid misunderstandings in the meaning of these variables from the beginning.

Thanks,
Chiara
