Mesh quality after snappyHex
Hi,
i'm running the case of a flow inside a rough channel. I'm trying to generate a proper mesh. The bottom roughness is formed by small cubical blocks.
Each block's surface mesh should be formed by approximately 4 cells in the vertical direction and 2 cells in the two horizontal directions (although the refined cells should be about 2.5 units wide, while the blocks are 4.5 units wide, so a BIT LESS than 2 cells).
After snappyHex, however, i ran checkMesh and the result is the following
Code:
Checking topology...
Boundary definition OK.
Cell to face addressing OK.
Point usage OK.
Upper triangular ordering OK.
Face vertices OK.
Number of regions: 1 (OK).

How can i improve the result?
I don't know if these informations are enough. If you need to know more i can post some screenshots or others dicts.
Thank you very much
