Dear All,

I am trying to run a case, from the mesh to the post-processing phase, using OpenFOAM. What I wanna do, now, is very simple:

1. I create a bigCube using blockMesh.
2. Inside this bigCube I am trying to insert a smallCube. Thanks to topoSet I can "select" the cells I am interested in. The point is that I would like to create a double-region domain. I mean: I wanna call "solid" the smallCube set and "fluid" the bigCube.

I have thought something about:

        {
            box (0.8 0 0.1)(1.3 0.25 0.6);
        }
    }

);

But once I have the set, how can I make it be a region?

Thanks a lot,

look at CHTmultiRegion test cases in OpenFOAM tutorial, you wiil find how define different zone

Thank you very much. I'll investigate it.
