Patent ID: 8200459

Claim:
A method of generating a mesh of an object that moves through a fluid medium which is used in the design or analysis of said object in connection with a hybrid method combining RANS and LES, said hybrid method having a set of specifications, wherein said method of generating a mesh comprises the following steps: a) creating an inner “C” topology around said object for a boundary layer description; b) creating an outer “C” topology around the inner “C” topology covering a space region including a separation region; c) locating the separation region intermediate the inner and outer topologies and connecting it to said inner and outer “C's” topologies so that the outer “C” topology is fixed to the size of the separated region and the inner “C” topology is fixed to the size of the boundary layer; d) refining the mesh in the separation region according to the specifications of said RANS/LES hybrid method.
