Hi!
I am trying to make axisymmetric blockMesh for cylinder in Openfoam. I have made the mesh shown in attached picture but when I run checkMesh on it, it shows me 3 failed mesh checks. I have used mirrorMesh twice to mirror the mesh for one quarter cylinder that I had developed. The failed mesh checks are: ***Zero or negative face area detected. Minimum area: 0 <<Writing 1600 zero area faces to set zeroAreaFaces Min volume = 9.19428e-07. Max volume = 3.5858e-05. Total volume = 1.17687. Cell volumes OK. Mesh non-orthogonality Max: 90 average: 7.46455 ***Number of non-orthogonality errors: 1600. <<Writing 1600 non-orthogonal faces to set nonOrthoFaces Face pyramids OK. ***Max skewness = 63.6787, 720 highly skew faces detected which may impair the quality of the results <<Writing 720 skew faces to set skewFaces Coupled point location match (average 0) OK. Failed 3 mesh checks. I have not used type wedge in the quarter cylinder mesh since I mirrored it later. There are 0 default faces formed. Please help! |
