Franco Concli

Dear,

regarding geometry:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_N7WXFON_Nc

regarding mesh:

you should just insert a sweept mesh (attached picture). Actually I have had some troubles with this technique: the sweep direction tends to swirl.

Hope can help.

Franco

Thank you very much Dear Franco Concli I will try that option but can u help for Ansys APDL or in hypermesh will be most useful

Deepak Kumar

Hi prabhakar,

u can do element sweeping in ansys through vsweep command.

Main Menu>Preprocessor>Meshing>Mesh>Volume Sweep>Sweep

Thank you Dr. Deepak kumar
