Step-by-Step Tutorial: Homework of Session 4

[SOLVED]

Good morning SimScale team,

I’m currently trying to generate the mesh for my Formula SAE Front Wing (session 4 homework). It’s a three-element wing, and between the elements, the mesh is too coarse and doesn’t mesh the 12mm gaps correctly, as evidenced in the attached images. Which parameters should I modify in the mesh refinement? The current parameter values are also in the attached image.

I have also tried to change the Mesh refinement minimum and maximum to 9, but then I get an error in the Mesh generation. This is my project link, and any help generating the mesh would be appreciated.

EDIT: I solved my problem. The .stl files from the front wing all started with FW, and the mesh generator assumed it was only one body. I renamed them, and the mesh is now generated correctly. Thanks to user pfernandez.
