But one of the demand that has come up from a customer is if I could use Prism cells instead of hex cells. My concerns are: 1. I saw on OPENFOAM user guide that instead of hex keyword, if I use prism, I can have prismatic cells. But my concern is that then the box itself would be a prism. I want to know if it is possible to have a cuboid as box and prism cells inside. 2. Suppose I find a solution to the first concern, is it then possible to work with prism cells in Snappyhexmesh? What parameters do I need to change for that? Thanks, Vneet
