Identifying degenerated edge

February 8, 2008, 09:08

Hello friends,

Could anyone tell me how to find a degenerated edge in ICEM ?

My blocking looks fine but when recomputing the pre-mesh I get the following message "degenerate edge 669 to 219". Where is that ?

I need to correct the problem because the unstructured mesh has negative volume elements (I suppose the two problems are related) and, then, CFX crashes.

Thanks,

Felix

if you are sure that there is no problem with the edge parameter

then try opening the ICEM file once again seperatly the tin and block files, convert to uns file
