SubscriberI am trying to generate hexa mesh around a 3D cylinder in ICEM. I need to use the fine mesh near the cylinder and coarse mesh away from the cylinder. I am trying to do that by specifying different number of nodes on both sides of the edge (60 nodes on one side of the edge and 120 nodes on other side of the edge as shown in figure) but unable to do that.
Another issue is that, when I tried to specify the number of nodes to only one edge, the same number of nodes are automatically getting copied to all the parallel edges even though the 'copy properties to parallel edges' optioned is disabled during the edge selection.
How to resolve these two issues?

Ansys EmployeeIf you are using blocking, you will need to use same number of nodes to get mapped mesh on the surfaces.
Please go through tutorials of hex meshing in ICEM.
Please go through help manual for more details
