Week 2 Challenge : Surface meshing on a Pressure valve

In This week 2 Challenge, I have learned about the pressure valve [ How it works and how to mesh it]

There are few gaps in the geometry and some of the gaps can't be viewed properly, by using wireframe mode or ctrl+shift it can be viewed. Also learned about the three types of cons (single, double and triple) and cross hatch and how to use Not , Inot, All, lock, loop, Ent, Pid and it's region

In the Topo mode by using Face- New option, a pop up will appear and it have existing surf, planar, fitted and Coons option. we can fill the gaps by these options or else by fill hole option

After filling the gaps, we can double check by geometry check, it shows if there is any error or warnings

Inside of the pressure valve there will be a intersecting error, we can assign the spring or column by the help of Not and Pid region and by choosing first and second option in Faces - intersect option, we can delete the intersect part and it can be named one by one

After Closing the outlet Part

CASE 1 : 5mm Target Length

Using CFD Mesh,we can give the minimum and maximum target length and by using

Spacing - Auto Cfd - Perimeter and Macros - Cfd - Visible... We can mesh the geometry

5MM Spring:

In 5mm Mesh, Spring wasn't meshed properly

CASE 2: 3mm Target Length

Same as case 1, just the target length will be different

3mm Spring:

Mesh was ok but not satisfied, so we can go for a lower mesh

CASE 3 : 1MM Target Length

Properly meshed in this length

1mm Spring

In this Length, Spring was so properly meshed and this was the correct length to mesh the pressure valve
