Hexa Mesh Generation for a 2D Pipe Junction

In this tutorial, you will generate a mesh for a two-dimensional pipe junction that comprises two inlets and one outlet. After generating an initial mesh, you will check the quality of the mesh, and refine it for a Navier-Stokes solution.

2D Pipe Geometry

This tutorial demonstrates how to do the following:

  • Block the geometry.

  • Associate entities to the geometry.

  • Move vertices onto the geometry.

  • Apply mesh parameters.

  • Generate the initial mesh.

  • Adjust the edge distribution and refine the mesh.

  • Match the edges to improve quality.

  • Verify and save the mesh.
