Hello everyone!

I'm new in this forum and I'm new to openFOAM. I'm trying to simulate a ship entering the water with a 3D interDyMFoam model and I need to calculate the pressure, velocity and alpha fields on specific sections of the ship so that I can compare them with 2D calculations.

My question is how to create patches on the hull surface, like slices of it, without changing the STL file, to put into surface function in my controldict.

Thanks in advance!!
