Balancing Meshing Time with Solution Accuracy |
|
 |
 |
 |
One of the largest initial hurdles for Breedlove and his team has been quickly analyzing new designs with limited resources. To that end, TotalSim agreed to help with the preliminary CFD analysis given a restricted budget. The key to success for both parties was generating inexpensive accurate results.
Leveraging Pointwise, TotalSim generated a hybrid grid, balancing mesh generation time and solution accuracy. Pointwise’s structured and unstructured meshing techniques coupled with T-Rex (anisotropic tetrahedral extrusion) were used to generate layers of unstructured hexahedra and prisms, helping to reduce the overall cell count and improve grid quality.

Additionally, TotalSim was able to exploit the flexibility of Pointwise and manually adapt the grid to help resolve shock structures and more accurately predict vehicle performance.
Watch this recorded webinar to discover how to:
- Simplify a complex geometry using layers for organization
- Resolve areas of high curvature using structured meshing techniques
- Automatically generate contiguous viscous layers of unstructured hexahedra and prisms
- Effortlessly add local refinement to an existing volume mesh to improve solution accuracy
- Rapidly assess high-speed vehicle performance on a limited budget
