[ICEM] Ogrid "copy to parallel edges" issue

gggiulio · February 17, 2016, 09:11

Hello everybody.

This is my first post in cfd-online, I apologise for any error I can make.

I am also quite new in usign Icem, I did many tutorials on youtube, and those suggested by the forum. But couldn't find any solution to my problem:

I have a geometry with a hole with a ogrid around. No problem in blocking.
when I want to set edge parameters, it somehow recognizes all parallel edges around the hole, even if I have cancel the block....
A pic may clarify my issue....

Hope you could find some time to reply...

Thank you in advance,
Giulio

what exactly is your question? what are you trying to archive?

I would like to have an O-GRID with different number of elements on each side (4 sides each different number of elements).

did you uncheck/deselect 'copy to parallel edges'?

Actually, yes. I tried all the options, in particular "copy to selected edge", but it automatically selects all parallel edges (like if instead of a hole there was a block, which is not...)
