 direction by assigning a scale factor of 2 in the  direction and 1 in the  and  directions. This would double the extent of the mesh in the  direction. However, you should use anisotropic scaling with caution, since it will change the aspect ratios of the cells in your mesh.

In this tutorial tyou will learn how to scale the mesh using Ansys Fluent. Changing units in geometries is a very recurring error before starting the simulation. In this tutorial you can scale your mesh without modifying your geometry.
