Hi all,

I am trying to create a 3D wing in GAMBIT. I am using a 2D airfoil in a Cgrid. When i use Form Volume -Sweep Face, with path vector. I get an error :

ACIS error 95034 :Attempt to sweep a non-manifold face.
Sweeping or revolving face circl1 failed.

The two rectangle faces are made to 3D but the circle face with the airfoil fails.

Could anyone guide me how to resolve this please. Could it be due to the two airfoil edges ending at the same point (trailing edge ending at one point)?

Thanks in advance.
