[ICEM] Meshing a complex pipe network -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

January 31, 2012, 16:59	Meshing a complex pipe network	#1
Industrial_CFD Member Anonymous Join Date: Jan 2012 Location: Canada Posts: 65 Rep Power: 14	Hi, I was wondering if there was a more efficient way than 3-D blocking to obtain a nice hex mesh on a complex pipe network (picture 20 odd runs of pipe, with 40 or so elbows). I tried using the blocking by surface option within ICEM, however, it results in missing blocks at particular locations along the pipe network. Any comments would be appreciated. Cheers
