Problem 1
Problem 2
Step 7: Refine Mesh
Go to Problem 1
It our mesh refine enough? Will the current mesh give us an accurate representation of the physical flow? To determine this, we will have to carry out mesh sensitivity analysis. To do this, we will create a coarser mesh and a finer mesh. and compare all the three meshes together.
