| Abstract: | In this paper, a two‐dimensional adaptive elliptic mesh generation system, derived from the Ryskin and Leal (RL) orthogonal mesh generation system based on the orthogonal condition (orthogonality) and the cell area equal‐distribution principle (adaptivity), is presented. The proposed generation system takes into account not only the mesh orthogonality and adaptivity but also the mesh smoothness by adopting a method that the distortion functions is determined by both the scale factors and the averaged scale factors of the constant mesh lines. Examples and application show that the proposed generation system is effective and easy to use. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. |
