Alternative workflow with Flux meshing tools

The operations to follow to obtain a skin effect mesh with Flux meshing tools are presented:

1. Create the lines to define the skin depth.
   Flux meshing tools will be assigned to those lines.
   

   

   
   
2. Assign the mesh data to impose the number of layer in the skin depth:
   • Create a "Mesh Line" through Mesh > Mesh Line > New. Choose Arithmetic, and enter the number of layers.
   • Assign this Mesh Line to the lines through Mesh > Assign mesh information > Assign mesh point/line/generator > Assign mesh line to lines. Select the lines in the skin depth and the previously created meshline:
     
     
     
     
3. Assign the mesh data to impose rectangular elements in the skin depth:
   • Assign the MAPPED mesh generator (available by default) to the faces in the skin depth, through Mesh > Assign mesh information > Assign mesh point/line/generator > Assign mesh generator to faces. Select the faces in the skin depth and the MAPPED mesh generator:
     
     
     
     
4. Optionnal: It is possible to change the mesh progression on the tranversal direction by, for example, assigning a meshline or unassigning the relaxation on the lines, etc.
5. Mesh the device through Mesh > Mesh Domain
   Note: In 2D, the second order elements are generated automatically.

Here is an example of the mesh obtained with this workflow (3 layers):
