October 22, 2016, 10:01	Calculating mesh quality in paraview	#1
Jack001 Member Jack Join Date: May 2015 Posts: 98 Rep Power: 10	Hi all, I am trying to determine the quality of my mesh in terms of resolution for an LES calculation. I have strict requirements on $\Delta x^+, \Delta y^+, \Delta z^+$ and so I would like to plot a contour plot of these values on my wall surfaces. This I can easily do if I have access to the dimensions of my cells in my mesh, since for example $\Delta y^+ = \Delta yU_{\tau}/\nu$ and so I need to know, for each (hexahedral) cell in my mesh, what are the $\Delta x, \Delta y, \Delta z$ values. Can this be done in paraview?
