Attaching nozzle outlet to curved surface
 
2 Attachment(s)
Hello,


I'm roughly familiar with how transfinite surfaces and curves work. I'm attempting to make a structured hexa mesh with a nozzle outlet that is attached to the side of a curved tank. My current work on the tank can be seen in the two files attached. rev0 is the tank without any attempt at attaching the outlet to the tank. rev1 includes a rough template of the points I would be using to attach to the curved surface.


My current idea was to create a hole boundary with a hole around the already developed circle, but I feel that would cause meshing issues further down the line. If anyone could offer a solution that might be more straightforward that would be much appreciated.
