Meshing the fuselage - wing Area

HugoLong123

When merging meshes from two components (e.g., wing–fuselage junction), what are the best practices to ensure a proper connection?
How should differences in mesh resolution be handled (e.g., finer mesh on the wing than on the fuselage)?
Is it problematic to have highly stretched or anisotropic cells in this region? (like in the tutorial on youtube).

Hi Hugo Long,

Thanks for your questions.

That's totally fine, the solver is designed such that those intersections can be handles. Just a note that out best practices is that we use 120 points on the wing in the chordwise direction, and aim aspect ratio of 2-3 in the mid chord. As for fuselage, if it's a half body, we recommend 40 points in the azimuthal direction and 100 points in the axial direction.

Feel free to reach out via email (shahfiq.shahjahan@siemens.com), if you have any further questions.

Regards,

Shahfiq
