Hi,

 

I am wondering how to add a local mesh to a port. I can add a local mesh to a dipole but the mesh is not added to the port connected to dipole. How can I overcome this?

 

Thanks in advanced

    Hello,

     

    I'm not sure I understand your request or problem, so I'll give a general comment on mesh refinement and hopefully that resolves your problem.

     

    Mesh refinement can be added to wires, edges, faces and regions. Thus, if the port is on a wire, you could consider adding mesh refinement on the wire. If you don't want to add mesh refinement on the entire wire, but only close to the port, then the best solution is probably to add a point refinement (not linked to geometry) in the vicinity of the port.

     

    Note that wire ports are automatically refined (by default) a little and thus it should not be required, but if you need to refine it further, I hope the comment above will help.
