Hello!

I want to creata a mesh that is described by a area (lets say in x-y plane) and then extruded in the z direction because it is uniform in with hight.

I have created the 2D mesh in gmsh (.msh ending) and I'm presently trying to transfer it to OpenFOAM. I dont know whether I should extrude it first with the Openfoam command or if I have to convert it first with gmshToFoam command and then try to extrude it.

Either way I get Error messages.

Does anyone have an idea of how to create a mesh in this manner?

Thanks
/Erik
