Inflation won’t mesh all of the boundary layers specified

  I'm having problems meshing my 2D geometry. I have an inflation with the following settings:nInflation option: First Layer ThicknessnFirst Layer Height: 1.9e-6nMaximum Layers: 30nGrowth Rate: 1.2nThe mesh results in only about 14-16 layers, and I'm not sure why. I also tried the Maximum Thickness option with 30 layers again, and I got the same result. What could be reasons why this is happening?n

  It must be stair stepping. Please check the geometry near the edges on which inflation is defined. Also please check if all required edges are defined under inflation. If some are misssing, then also it will create stairstepping. nPlease search stairstepping and you will get many discussions on this forum. nRegards,nKeyurnHow to access Ansys Online Help DocumentnHow to show full resolution imagenGuidelines on the Student CommunitynHow to use Google to search within Ansys Student Communityn
