[ANSYS Meshing] Problem with the skewness of this geometry

Maralady · June 16, 2013, 01:28

Hello, I was wondering if someone can help me with the meshing of this geometry, I have tried a lot of things, but nothing seems to work, I got a 5M elements mesh but still the skewness was too high (I work with FLUENT), the last thing that I am trying is to specify an element size with the sizing function, but it is taking a lot and probably I will get again a 6M-8M elements mesh, as you notice that amount of elements make the simulation to take days, I made a small survey with some people at my university and they consider that a big mesh has around 2M-3M of elements, so having 2, 3 and even 4 times that does not sounds good, I will upload the geometry so maybe you guys can tell me your opinion.

Here is the files for the geometry, I would really appreciate if someone can help me http://speedy.sh/fKhck/Geom.agdb

Just to give a little bit more of details, it is a 3D geometry, pretty complex but just 1 volume, just 1 cell zone
