Hello,
I am encountering an issue with the Pointwise elliptic solver. I would like to do a smooth structured mesh of a pipe with diameter 0.5mm. I watched many tutorials about that and I can reproduce them without issues. The only thing is that when I try to run the elliptic solver to the on the pipe weird intersections are created, as you can see attached. The mesh would look perfect but it seems that the last point of the connector is fixed in the initial position, although I modified all the related setting in the boundary conditions tab of the solver. Thanks a lot for your hints and help |

Hello,
You are probably messing around with databases and domains ![]() You have to select the option Grid > Solve... > Attributes > Surface Shape > Free to your domains, even for domains adjacents to the butterfly topology. (It will change the domains' color from purple to green) If your connectors keeping weird, try to initialize the domains or edit the connector manually in Edit > Curve. At last resource, you could delete all the databases to eliminate the constraints. |
