Structured Or Unstructured Meshes: What Works Best For Turbomachinery CFD


In computational fluid dynamics (CFD), meshing is a critical step for achieving reliable simulations, especially when combined with a robust solver strategy. As turbomachinery blade geometries become more intricate and design cycles shorten, traditional meshing approaches are often not enough. To keep pace, we must adopt advanced methodologies, and more importantly, quantify their impact on res... » read more
