[ANSYS Meshing] ANSYS WB Mesher really slow?

peterputer · June 21, 2012, 11:32

Hej,
i ve some questions regarding the speed of ANSYS WB Mesher. I just ve a Fluid Mesh of ca 200000Nodes and an Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E6550 @ 2.33GHz as processor and 8GB Ram.
So i know that CPU isnt the fastest around but still, it takes ca 5-10min to generate a Mesh which is pretty slow to my mind.
Am i using the wrong options?
My mesh is basically a 1° part of a 2 stage turbine rig, so it is a quasi 2D mesh.
I sweep the faces and use inflation layers and some mesh face sizings where i need it.
Regards

I agree that ANSYS meshing is slow.

Hi Peterputer,

I've got similar problem when meshing a geometry using the sweep method for CFX pseudo 2D axisymmetric problem.

Is there any other solution to this problem? Could you suggest some other alternative meshers?

Thanks;

Peter

Yes ANSYS mesher is slow,Please check uncheck ature and proximity
or if it tet mesh use patch independent with incresing number of Cpu
