[snappyHexMesh] Strange lines with snappyHexMesh

staubchen · May 18, 2016, 06:16

Hello everyone!
I'm new in OpenFoam and I'm trying to repeat DTCHull tutorial with my own stl geometry.
It works rather good, but I always see strange lines in surrounding mesh far away from the stl (see attached file).

Could please anyone explain me, what am I doing wrong and how to avoid it?
Thank you.

Is this a cut section? These just look like Paraview rendering. You can turn these off with different methods, but which one to use depends on what you are viewing here.

Thank you, me 3840. It was really rendering problem. I've turned on "Crinkle clip" in Paraview and now can see the normal mesh.
