Gambit 3D Meshing: Error: Out of Memory

April 30, 2007, 03:32

I have modelled a Blended Wing Body (BWB) aero model and trying to analyse using fluent.

To get a reasonable Y+ value around 300, my ds is 0.05. But since the value is so small, I end up getting couple of millions of meshes just for a surface!!!

I have aleady encountered memory problem while meshing surfaces, How do i overcome this problem...??

Reynolds No. 550e+006 Reference Length. 2460 inches

And What turbulent model ahould i use for the this case?

memory problem generally means you are trying to do more than your computer can handle. Use less cells or get more RAM!
