Location: 3D page The CFD Tetramesh panel can be used to generate hybrid grids, containing hexa/penta/tetra elements in the boundary layer and tetra elements in the core or fare field.

Panel Usage
Separate subpanels exist for Boundary selection, Boundary Layer (BL) parameters, Tetramesh parameters, 2D parameters, and Refinement boxes.

Buttons to mesh, reject a mesh, mesh to file or check 2D mesh exist on all subpanels except for the Refinement box, meaning you have access to the meshing functionality from almost each subpanel. This allows you to mesh from one of the parameter panels, and if the mesh results are not satisfactory, you can reject the mesh, change some parameters, and regenerate the mesh without leaving the subpanel.

Subpanels and Inputs

The CFD Tetramesh panel contains the following subpanels and command buttons:
