[ICEM] Creating coincident nodes in icem cfd

rajdeep_iitd · December 23, 2022, 03:15

Hi

I am trying to mesh two geometrically complex structures and want to create coincident nodes between them on their interfacial surfaces so as to create a conformal mesh. Is there any way to create such coincident nodes between two surfaces in ICEM CFD?

It is unclear what you exactly mean. Because, if you have 2 volumes, that have a mutual interface surface, then a you will have a conformal mesh automatically. At least, if you create the mesh in both volumes in a single mesh-generation-session.

If you first create the mesh of volume 1, and then in a new ICEM session, the mesh of volume 2, then it gets more complex.....
