GMSH: Circular structured mesh

Nico1 · August 10, 2017, 10:25

Hi everyone.

I am working with Gmesh, and i need to create a grid with the following characteristics:

-270 circumferential divisions
-301 radial divisions resulting
With quadrilateral elements.

The final grid should be like this one:

I really appreciate if someone could help me.

Thanks

Hi Nicolas,

That looks like a o-grid made with hyperbolic extrusion. GMSH does not have hyperbolic extrusion but there are a few open-source/free meshing softwares which support it. Have a look at this thread.
