Hello,

I am looking for an intelligent way of performing a visual check on my mesh.

The case is as follows:

I have a large amount of small tubes, fuel inlet system, connecting regions of the geometry I am meshing. The way Snappyhexmesh works is that it will grow through these smallholes only if the cellsize is sufficiently small in these regions. On smaller geometries I found out that even when the cellsize is sufficiently small, sometimes a couple of tubes are skipped.

So after the mesh is made I want to do a "quick as possible" check if all holes got meshed. The amount here is 300+ tubes at strange angles, so doing it all manually by inserting a lot of cutting planes is not really an option on the long term.

Anyone has an idea for a somewhat more intelligent way of performing such a check?

Thank you in advance!
