Hi Dave,
I just tried the BL extrusion command. Neat!
1st question: Is there any means to control the expansion ratio of the
cells within the extruded mesh?
2nd question: How to avoid the collapsing of the upper and lower layers
at the *sharp* trailing edge of an airfoil (see pic attached)? Ideally I
would like to extend those layers in the wake. I tried to append a wake
surface (in fact a wedge with a very thin apex angle) to the trailing
edge and grow a BL mesh on it, but didn't work, I still have the same
problem at the trailing edge. Any idea?
Cheers,
Patrick
