Ansys Meshing – Hexahedral Mesh

Written by cfd.ninja

Source: Ansys
The MultiZone mesh method provides automatic decomposition of geometry into mapped (structured/sweepable) regions and free (unstructured) regions. It automatically generates a pure hexahedral mesh where possible and then fills the more difficult to capture regions with unstructured mesh. The MultiZone mesh method and the Sweep mesh method operate similarly; however, MultiZone has capabilities that make it more suitable for a class of problems for which the Sweep method would not work without extensive geometry decomposition.
In this tutorial, you will learn tocreate a structured mesh (hexahedral mesh) using Ansys Meshing. In this case, the geometry is a hollow cylinder.

Ansys Meshing – Inflation
ou can set the Use Automatic Inflation control so that inflation boundaries are selected automatically depending on whether or not they are members of Named Selections groups.

Ansys Meshing – Multizone + Inflation
The MultiZone mesh method provides automatic decomposition of geometry into mapped (sweepable) regions and free regions. When the MultiZone mesh method is selected, all regions are meshed with a pure hexahedral mesh if possible.
