[ GiDlist ] Request for advice on meshing parameters

[Des Aubery's work area]

Hi all,

I have recently started evaluating GiD, and am rather impressed, so far.

I am performing rather complex CFD work - with a 2d mesh consisting of 1
NURBS surface, consisting of an exterior closed boundary, with 750
enclosed closed boundaries.

Is someone able to provide advice on suitable selection of meshing
parameters, in order to both optimise meshing time, but to also give
reasoably optimal meshes.

Is there a way to say separate a complicated mesh into separate
"surfaces", and mesh each in its own optimal way? Will the mesher ensure
grid continuity between these surfaces?

Any tips & advice in this area would be welcomed...

Are any papers avalable beyond those in the excellent tutorials?

Des Aubery...
