INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SECURING FLOW PATH

An information processing apparatus includes a memory, and a processor coupled to the memory and the processor configured to represent a shape of a component with a plurality of meshes, when a portion of the shape of the component exists in a first mesh of the plurality of meshes, exchange the first mesh with a second mesh of the plurality of meshes, which is filled with the shape of the component, and when a designated flow path overlaps with the second mesh, replace the second mesh with the first mesh in which the designated flow path exists.
