Dendritic Meshing *

چکیده
A mesh is said to be dendritic if it contains elements with mid-side (edge) nodes when the predominant element topology has only corner nodes. A dendritic mesh is illustrated in Figure 1 where the predominant element is a four-node quadrilateral, but has also several five-node quadrilateral elements each with one mid-edge node plus four corner nodes. Such meshes arise when an approximately uniform element size is required across a mesh domain in cases, for example, where domain geometry changes would otherwise cause a significant variation in element size or in an Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR) context. In meshes created for multi-physics applications with explicit time-stepping, the maximum time-step size is intimately tied to element size through the Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy condition[6]:

Dynamic Meshing Characteristics of Elliptic Cylinder Gear Based on Tooth Contact Analysis
As the most important working area of gear, teeth play the role of transmitting load and power. Tooth line and tooth profile are the two main characteristics of the tooth surface, which affect the shape of the tooth surface, tooth meshing characteristics and contact characteristics. Taking the elliptical cylinder gear pair in the reversing device of a new type of drum pumping unit as the resear...

In order to study the dynamic meshing characteristics of the elliptic cylinder gear and obtain the meshing error of the gear transmission system, the two-dimensional static contact analysis of the gear tooth surface is carried out by using ANSYS software, and the key parts of the contact area of the tooth surface are determined. Then, the dynamic meshing model of the elliptic cylinder gear is e...

Straight line and column envelope type meshing pairs are two important meshing pairs in single screw compressors, while straight line envelope meshing pair is actualized but the other is still fail to meet industrial applications. The column envelope meshing pair of single screw compressors is proposed to improve the operating life of the compressor for poor wear resistance of existing straight...
متن کاملAutomated Hex Meshing for Turbomachinery Secondary Air System
In this paper, we present a novel process of creating hexahedral meshes for the turbomachinery secondary air system. The meshing process is automated from the geometry import to the mesh setup and requires minimum human interventions. The core of the process is a hexahedral meshing algorithm with a boundary layer mesh automatically created. The hex meshing algorithm combines the pave-sweep, gen...
متن کاملAutomated Two-Dimensional Multi-block Meshing Using the Medial Object
This paper describes the automatic generation of a structureddominant mesh based on an automatic block decomposition obtained using the medial object. The mesh generator will produce a mesh for an arbitrary two-dimensional geometry, where quadrilateral-dominant or triangular meshing is used when structured meshing fails. The domain is automatically partitioned into blocks (sub-regions), and an ...
