Figure 1 Grid menu options.


OptionsDescription
Refine GridThis option allows the user to increase the resolution of the grid. It operates by multiplying the existing number of cells in the current grid with I and J directions independently.
Coarsen GridThis option operates in an opposite way to that for Refine Grid. It decreases the resolution of the grid.
Orthogonalize GridThis option is used to reduce the orthogonal deviation of a grid.
Merge Two GridsOften the model domain is too complex to create a single grid that accurately represents the area. Therefore, the user may have to create several grids and connect them using the Merge Two Grid tool.
Delete Selected Grid BlockWhen a grid block is selected, using this option will delete grid nodes inside the block.
Modify Indexing

This feature allows to change grid indices, including transpose I-J, flip I or J, and rotate I→J and J→I (Figure 2).
