Problem in clearing generated mesh

siara817 · March 28, 2011, 04:33

Hi,
I imported the geometry with mesh from ICEM to STAR CCM. The problem is that, it is not possible to clear the previous mesh. I tried to change the reference value of the mesh to increase the quality of existing mesh but I could not.
Could you please help me to increase the quality of existing mesh or clear it completely.
The picture is attached.
Thanks in advance

As it is seen at the picture, the mesh size is not uniformly changed. I would like to remove all the cell set and create a new one. But I do not know how.

Is it a volumetric mesh?
You can extract the boundary surface and make a remesh on it.

Hi,
Thanks for your help, yes you were right. I did it and it worked. Now the quality of surface mesh is fine. but the cell quality of volume mesh( I use Threshold) is not high, i.e. less that 0.1.
Thanks in advance
