In the new tutorial mesh/snappyHexMesh/pipe the pipe diameter changes by a factor
of 2 but the number of cells across the pipe is specified to be constant along
the length using the new "span" refinement mode in which the number of cells
across the span is set to be at least 40:
refinementRegions
{
pipe
{
mode span;
levels ((1000 2)); // Maximum distance and maximum level
cellsAcrossSpan 40;
}
}
This operates in conjunction with the "pointCloseness" option in surfaceFeatures
which writes a surfacePointScalarField of the local span of the domain. Note
that the behaviour of this option is critically dependent on the quality of this
field and the surface may need to be re-triangulated more isotropically to
ensure the "pointCloseness" is accurate and representative of the domain and the
required mesh distribution.
