blockMeshDict [simpleGrading]
Tutorial link: YouTube Tutorial
Description: To create finer mesh near a perticular face in blockMeshDict, simpleGrading is used. In this tutorial, few options of simpleGrading are explained for example, how to create finer grid near the single face and two faces.
Points covered:
- How to create finer grid near a face
- How to distribute geometry and no. of cells
- How expansion ratio work in blockMeshDict
