Use the Surface tool to interactively create mesh on select surfaces by defining
element size.
The mesh generated will adhere to any previously defined
mesh controls.
From the Mesh ribbon, click the
Surface tool.
Figure 1.
Select surfaces.
In the microdialog, select a surface meshing method and
define relevant parameters.
Surface Deviation
For mesh with smooth transition.
Rigid Body
For creating body-fitted mesh with minimum element count. It will
create anisotropic mesh on curved surfaces based on the minimum size
defined and apply defined size average / maximum size on flat
surfaces. This is useful for Lattice Boltzman-based solvers where it
is important to capture the shape of geometry with the least number
of elements.
