I am modeling the external aerodynamics of a class 8 vehicle (in other words, a semi-truck). In order to achieve a y+ value less than 1 for accurate results with the SST Turbulence Model, I have refined the boundary layer that exponentially increases my computational costs. Currently, my simulations use 25+ million fluid elements. Any insight or tips on how to reduce this element count would be greatly appreciated
