Error while exporting mesh

Vidya Raja

Hi,

I have a solid model created in ProE. I imported it into GAMBIT and then created some additional edges and faces as an appendages to the original model i.e., the solid frame represents a frame and the additional appendages aere supposed to represent a flexible polymeric leaflet. This leaflet should be attched to the frame. But when I exported the mesh to Fluent, I got error messages saying that the faces of the leaflet that I created were not meshed and hence not exported.

Do I need to use the connect faces/ edges comand or is it understood by Gambit that the leaflet is attached to the frame because I used some of the edges of the frame also to make the connections? Can this be the reason for the error?

Please suggest something.

Thanks, Vidya
