Week 2 Challenge : Surface meshing on a Pressure valve

Surface meshing on a Pressure valve:

Topo cleanup:

Minor corrections in faces (indicated in orange) :

PID properties:

Create a new PSHELL and rename it according to the part. Then, select the respective faces and apply.

Meshing:

Case 1: 1 mm

Case 2: 3 mm

Case 3: 5 mm

Conclusion:

Comparing all three cases, case 1 mesh length of 1mm seems pretty good as the mesh length is minimum it covers all the small parts. In cases 2 and 3 meshing is not quite good because while meshing the spring and the column shape distorts.
