hai all...

 

i had a tough time meshing a part(shown in pic), i intended to do with hex8 element but at the junction where i've spoted in the pic were failing internally. 

 

2 mutually perpendicular cylinders are connected with varying fillet, the region where i couldn't mesh.. 

 

what is the approach to achieve this.. thanks in advance image/emoticons/default_smile.png' alt=':)' srcset='<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x' width='20' height='20'>

    Firstly, you have to understand that we can not make full hex8 mesh for any geometry image/emoticons/default_smile.png' alt=':)' srcset='/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x' width='20' height='20'>

    The thing is, Start from the junction and then proceed towards the outside

    also try to suppress unnessery edges.. create your own edges or existing edges for smooth flow of hex mesh..
