One means of numerically simulating the 3-D flow field within a multistage turbomachine is through the solution of the average-passage equation system. One requirement of a current algorithm used to solve this system of equations has been the ability to generate multiple blade row meshes which satisfy specific geometrical constraints. In addition to meeting this criterion, one desires a mesh generation code which requires minimal user input, utilizes variable mesh control parameters, generates diagnostics helpful to the user, and possesses the capability to handle widely varying geometries. A mesh generation code with these features was written and has been used in solving the inviscid form of the average-passing equation system for both ducted and unducted multiple blade row geometries. This paper serves as a user reference guide, with a description of the mesh generation algorithm, a sample input file, and examples of typical meshes generated.
