cad iteration 5, small defects removed from the geometry, final mesh settings with grid independence study

Sample project for how to set-up the Hex-Dominant Parametric mesh for flow around a vehicle body.

mesh produced using boundary layer refinements for y+ and minimising the region refinements

updated BL thickness based on Blasius calcs

quarter lorry scale v1
same parameters as normal

v5 copy with bounding box changed - hopefully same results

v5b copy with mesh refined near the wall boundary layers

Same as V4 but using STEP format instead of IGS to prevent sheet bodies

medium mesh copy with mesh fineness increased

medium mesh copy with refinement decreased

version 5 but done with layer settings set to relative

Copy of V5 mesh with pressure solver changed to smooth

Copy of V5 with pressure solver changed to investigate convergence

The project illustrates how to simulate airflow around a complex F1 vehicle.

Mesh aimed at 2 million cells using region refinements only

Initial version of mesh produced over Christmas to check cell count
