Fluent Meshing Mode

elochana · November 23, 2020, 11:45

Hello Everyone,

1. Before Ansys tookover, which software did Fluent users use for meshing and geometry modelling?

2. Was Fluent Meshing mode available before Ansys tookover Fluent? Or is it something Ansys added after acquiring Fluent?

Asking this because, Fluent meshing mode doesn't allow you to add named selections or boundaries, and you are required to create named selections on DM or SC. I would really like to model my geometries in CATIA V5 and directly use Ansys Fluent without anything else. Is this even possible?

Thank you

check information about "Invoke Zone Separation by Angle" option in surface meshing tab, advanced options

before Ansys, people use Gambit to prepare mesh
