attachDetach: Not all zones and patches needed in the definition have been found.
 

Dear all,
I have set up a small test case to understand how to use the attachDetach dynamic mesh modifier. It is a simple cavity, where I attempt to insert a horizontal barrier by replacing the corresponding faces with boundaries. The case, which I am trying to run with OF1.5-dev, is attached.

The steps to run it are:
However, the last steps fails with this error message:
I have found another post about this problem, with the recommendation to do what the error message says: make sure that all zones and patches are found. But I have checked that all patches are defined in blockMeshDict, and the faceSet "barrier" is also defined.
Please help me by running the attached case and suggesting where I have made a mistake.

Thank you very much
Patricia

I didn't try your case. But my guess is you might need to do "setsToZones" to convert faceSet to faceZone.

Reposted as http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...achfvmesh.html because the initial error was solved, but other problems remain.

Solution??
 

Would be nice to know how you solved it. Just "solved" is a pretty uselss answer in a support forum.

Cheers, Hannes.

Could you please post your case files? Thanks.
