Notes:
A method of generating general tetrahedral meshes suitable for use in viscous flow simulations is proposed. The approach which is followed consists of the initial generation of a number of unstructured layers of highly stretched elements, in the vicinity of solid walls, followed by the discretisation of the remainder of the domain, by a standard advancing front procedure. The numerical performance of the proposed methodology is demonstrated by the generation of meshes suitable for viscous flow analysis over a number of three-dimensional aerodynamic configurations of current practical interest.
