Dear Foamers,

I am testing using 'refineWallLayer' to refine the layer near the wall. But it seems that I can only split the first layer near the wall into 2. Does anybody know how to refine it to more than 2 or also refine the second/third layer near the wall? Any suggestion?

My best regards,
Jian

Hey,


You can use refineWallLayer several times at different ratios to create boundary layers. Check your mesh for each new layer you add though
