Current best-practices for mesh generation in a structured overset framework are evaluated to determine their effects on the accuracy and convergence of the flow solution on a two-dimensional sectional cut of the High-Lift Common Research Model (HLCRM) wing. Mesh parameters are varied independently and correlated with force and moment coefficients from the flow solutions to identify the trends and sensitivities of the parameter variations, and the characteristics of a best practice mesh. Grid convergence and mesh adaption studies are also performed to determine the minimum mesh quality needed in order for solution-based adaption to reach an accurate flow solution.
