Merge Nodes automatically

December 6, 2006, 04:47

Hi Guys,

I have a small problem with ICEM CFD 10.0 I have two different 2D surface meshes (Tri) and want to merge them. Is there any possibility to merge the nodes at their interface automatically? I only found the "merge nodes" option that provides to do this manually.

Thanks for your help,

Timmy

If the nodes are coincident (or very close within a tolerance) you can merge by specifying a tolerance - then select the whole set of nodes to merge. If they are not consistent at all - there's really no way to merge only surface meshes.
