Generation of hexahedral element mesh in HyperWorks CFD
Hi experts,
I am modeling a cuboid as a fluid domain and would like to generate hexahedral element mesh in HyperWorks CFD. But I was only able to generate tetrahedral element mesh from Volume tool in the Mesh ribbon. I checked on the tutorials but could not find one for HyperWorks CFD. Do you have any idea on this or any tutorial?
Thanks.

Though HyperWorks CFD is not really intended for pure hex meshing, you can generate a pure hex mesh on a simple cube. First mesh one face (rectangular/square), then define an Extrusion with that as the Source face. I'll attach a simple screen recording.
