Hi!
I am sorry but I am not able to locate the tutorial for mesh adaptation. I have seen few places where many are mentioning it as the tutorial number 13, but I guess that is some previous version.

Also there was link posted by the developers which too is not working.

I would be grateful if anyone can provide me with the tutorial.

Thanks in advance!

Thank you for your interest in SU2
the mesh adaptation script is not currently used in any testcases or tutorials, and it is not included in the python scripts that are compiled into the biin/ folder - however, the mesh_adaptation.py script still exists in the SU2_PY folder. I just checked, and it does run for a small euler case. The options are similar to the other python scripts, and can be viewed with the -h flag.

Some caveats: I suggest starting from a config file and mesh in one of the continuous adjoint test cases, and since it is not moved into the bin/ folder you will probably need to copy it to your run directory.

The tutorials were recently moved to github, they can be viewed under the wiki tab there.

Any further help on what parameters need to appear in the config file to refine/adapt a mesh with solution?
I am running the mesh_adaptation.py script fine. But help with -h is pretty limited.
Thanks,

Check out the comments in SU2_MSH.cpp - there are several options. For example, if you want to refine for a particular objective you can use the adjoint method (limited to the objective functions for which this has been defined, like lift and drag). For that you will need to include the same parameters needed for an adjoint problem as well as specifying the type of mesh refinement.
