AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on challenges faced in using Gambit for a final year project involving industrial air and vapor flow, specifically creating a cylinder with a sphere inside and generating a mesh. Users suggest utilizing axis-symmetrical properties to simplify the geometry and meshing process, including splitting the geometry to facilitate easier meshing. There are inquiries about constructing a 3D nozzle and creating blades for a combustion swirler, with advice to start with simpler 2D geometries. Additionally, there are questions regarding the units used in Gambit and how they relate to imported geometries from other software like PRO-E. Overall, the thread highlights common issues and solutions related to modeling and meshing in Gambit.

Im trying to do my final year project on gambit which is related to industrial air and vapour flow. Technically i have to create a cylinder and put a sphere at the middle of the cylinder and eventually generate a mash without being being able to generate the mash of the sphere. its been over 2 weeks I am stuck at this point. I did most of the tutorials but still can't find anything similar to my problem. Just wondering if u would be kind enough to tell me brifly, how to divide a volume or may be few links to tutorials or documentation that might help.
thank you very much in advance.

The nice thing about a cylinder and a sphere is that thy are both axi-symmetrical which might help if you define one border as "axis" just draw a box with a semicircle on the bottom.
 
I m beginner of Gambit and Fluent. please suggest me how to construct 3D nozzle in Gambit.
 
i am making a swirler in gambit but i can't make a blade, i am working on the project of modelling of combustion swirler. can anyone help me how to make a balde in gambit & to create swirler.

I think you must split your geometry in the middle. That's will make meshing process easier. Split and mesh. you even can use axisymmetric boundary as described by jaap

Nozzle, 3 or 2d is easiest geometry to construct. As an exercise, try to construct 2d mesh nozzle. If you can, continue with 2d geometry, then rotate it 180 deg.
 
I was wondering if anyone knew what units GAMBIT and FLUENT uses? I am using PRO-E to draw geometry and then import it into gambit to create a mesh, what units does gambit import it in as? :frown:

Thanks
