[mesh manipulation] Refining mesh in engineFoam

Hi everybody,

I just wonder if anyone knows how to refine the mesh within a specific area (close to the ignition site) in the engineFoam/KivaTest tutorial.

Thanks in advance,

Johan

Hi again,

I mean, I need a very fine mesh around the ignition site to be able to continue on my thesis work. Is it possible to produce a blockMeshDict and implement it into the geometry of the cylinder in the engineFoam/kivaTest tutorial? Or is there any other way to do it?

There must be a way to refine the mesh around the ignition site, or I really hope so..

Anyone who knows anything or has any suggestions is very welcome to reply.

Thanks,

Johan
