How to add a fine boundary layer

I was trying to add a boundary layer to my mesh, but from the log file, it seems that the boundary layers were failed to be added.
Background Info: I have a model with reference length of about 1.64m, and constant inlet air velocity of 12.5m/s. As I would like to use K-epsilon model, I first tried to use a y+ value of 50. By substituting the information into the y+ calculation toolbox, I got a first layer thickness of about 0.001m. In snappyHexMeshDict, I have the addLayersControls with the following setting: Code:
addLayersControls { relativeSizes true; layers { "figure.*" { nSurfaceLayers 15; } } expansionRatio 1.3; firstLayerThickness 0.001; minThickness 0.001; nGrow 5; featureAngle 5; slipFeatureAngle 20; nRelaxIter 5; nSmoothSurfaceNormals 1; nSmoothNormals 3; nSmoothThickness 10; maxFaceThicknessRatio 0.5; maxThicknessToMedialRatio 0.3; minMedianAxisAngle 90; nBufferCellsNoExtrude 0; nLayerIter 15; } As shown in the above image, some surface do not have a boundary layer, and the overall quality of mesh also seems not to be good. Could there be any fix to the mesh? Thanks a lot! P.S. I have attached the log.snappyHexMesh and snappyHexMeshDict files in case that you need to have a look on it. |
