Hi 1) You can use UCD or Abaqus mesh format as input. 2) The best choice in mesh refinement is phase field variable. I have used phase field as control variable. Loop over cells and check the phase field variable in the cells. If phase field variable was greater than a limit then refine the cell. In addition you can use energy.
