Length-Based Mesh Refinement Process

When you request length-based mesh refinement, you instruct HFSS to refine the length of tetrahedral elements until they are below a specified value. The length of a tetrahedron is defined as the length of its longest edge.

You can specify the maximum length of tetrahedra on faces or inside of objects. You can also specify the maximum number of elements that are added during the refinement. When the initial mesh has been generated, the refinement criteria you specified will be used to refine the initial mesh.
