Introduction The main goal of this post is to give you the best meshing practices for high-quality CFD simulations, regarding geometry preparation, cell sizing techniques and boundary layer generation. You’ve probably heard the phrase: "Garbage in – garbage out." This...
Quite often, I hear complaints about non-orthogonality, the required number of non-orthogonality correctors to achieve convergence, and how it is worthless even trying to run a solver on a mesh, etc. The point of this series of posts is to give you an overview of the...
Introduction In Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), maintaining mesh quality is crucial for achieving convergence and accuracy. A common issue arises when dealing with acute feature edges—regions where two parts of the surface meet at sharp angles. These edges...
In April 2025, Creative Fields Holding signed a contract with IANUS Simulation from Dortmund, Germany, making CF-MESH+ soon to be a part of their StrömungsRaum® simulation platform. The goal of this partnership is to produce high-quality simulation applications for...
CFD meshing terminology can be quite daunting, especially for beginners. This article will give you an overview of the most common CFD meshing terms and expressions we use daily, in alphabetical order. If you are struggling with some of the expressions we are using in...
The goal of this post is to discuss the best practices of boundary layer generation in CF-MESH+ needed to perform low-Re turbulence modelling of boundary layers, on Ahmed body example. In order to show the importance of accurate boundary layer modelling, the post...
Quite often I hear complaints about non-orthogonality, the required number of non-orthogonality correctors to achieve convergence, and how it is worthless even trying to run a solver on a mesh, etc. The point of this series of posts is to give you an overview on the...
Introduction The process of importing CAD files has become simpler, more efficient, and packed with enhanced functionalities in the latest update to CF-MESH+. Users can now seamlessly import .step, .iges, and .brep files via the command line using the new CADToFMS...
The point of this series of posts is to give you an overview of the popular myths and to help you understand what is going on in your Finite-Volume CFD code and how to interpret mesh quality checks for your problem. The goal of this post is to de-mistify the impact of...
For the mesher to do its work the best it can and create high-quality meshes, it is necessary to follow some CFD meshing guidelines. Our experience taught us about the 5 most important steps and features in CF-MESH+ you should consider, depending on your meshing case:...
