Mesh refinement and mesh adaptation in SU2

akshaydeshpande · November 10, 2016, 16:01

Hi all,
I have a couple of questions regarding mesh refinement and mesh adaptation in SU2.

1] Does SU2 support a grid with 2:1 refinement ratio - thereby leading to the presence of hanging nodes? I have refined my mesh at the location of the applied source term to better resolve it. A picture is attached below.

2] I am trying to use the mesh adaptation code in SU2. For that, I am running the SU2_MSH binary for a restart file at a particular time-step (not converged). This gives me a new mesh file - which I use to run my case from the beginning. Is this the correct approach?

3] Is it possible to perform grid based interpolation in SU2?

Thanks in advance!

Hello, I'm interested in this answer too.
