Hello

Can anyone give a quick overview on how to use extrudeMesh utility? Or maybe point out a tutorial for it? I have been trying to get a basic instruction on how to use this utility but found none.

thanks

Greetings xiyuqiu,

extrudeMesh is very simple to use... it's usually part of more complex tutorials, such as this one: http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Ma...Examples/2DsHM

You can also find which tutorials use extrudeMesh by running:

Code:

find . -name "Allrun" | xargs grep extrudeMesh -sl

In addition, the reference dictionary file is located at:

Code:

$WM_PROJECT_DIR/applications/utilities/mesh/generation/extrude/extrudeMesh/extrudeMeshDict

You can look at it online here: https://github.com/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM...xtrudeMeshDict

Best regards,
Bruno
