Hello,

I am trying to simulate 3D flow around a circular cylinder, and at the moment for the mesh I have used inflation whereas I want to add refinement as well, around the cylinder. Should I divide the block in divisions to refine the flow behind the cylinder and around it or is there a way I can do it by selecting the cylinder and adding refinement? (which didn’t work when I selected the surface of the cylinder)

thank you
