[ICEM] – Volume orientation probem – MESH 20L Siwek apparatus

      Hello


      Could anyone give me an insight on how to fix the "volume orientation" problem? This seems to be ocurrying in the elements next to the wall of the sphere. The bad elements are colored in red.

      Please assign edges and faces of the blocks correctly. nPlease see videos on blocking.n ANSYS ICEM CFD: Mesh Improvement using Ogrid Split - YouTubennPlease see help manual for more details about these commands. nRegards,nKeyurnGuidelines for Posting on Ansys Learning ForumnHow to access ANSYS help linksnn

      Kkanade,Thank you very much for your reply. Is it necessary to associate the outer edges to the sphere surface? These are catched up automatically when I click on projected edge/mesh shape. If so, how can I associate the edges to the sphere if I dont have any curve defining the sphere? The only geometry inherited is the surface item.. Should I manually create curves surrounding the sphere and then associate?.I manually blocked all fluid region dilimited by an injection nozzle contained within a spheric wall, So my fluid region is nothing but a sphere without the volume occupied by the nozzle, this is why I have lots of blocks for my sphere..n

      You can assign faces. nAlso move the nodes of blocks appropriately. nPlease see help manual for more details about these commands. nnRegards,nKeyurnGuidelines for Posting on Ansys Learning ForumnHow to access ANSYS help linksnn
