I've just had a quick look at my makeAxialMesh example and found that this problem you mention persists for me too when I use makeAxialMesh, regardless of binary and writePrecision.

The example where ascii -> binary worked for me (post from April 6th) does not use makeAxialMesh. There I create the wedge in gmsh (translate mesh -1° about symmetryPlane and extrude/revolve 2° about symmetryPlane) and convert that to foam. So I'm not sure I can help you much further with makeAxialMesh - are you using gmsh?

I'm also not sure if you need to straddle the xy-plane equally or not. Maybe someone else can comment on the interpretation from the user manual:
Hello,

by the way i want to ask you about how you can do that in gmsh. Because when i managed to generate structured mesh in wedge in gmsh with one layer in the rotation direction, all that seems perfect . But after that when i define physical surfaces and volumes, I tried to generate the mesh again , all the meshes turned back to unstructured and in the rotation direction there is not the one layer grid any more. And i looked into the .geo file and fund out that all the codes related with Extrude was disappeared. Sofar i have got no idea about why.

Could you please tell me how to make wedge mesh in gmsh after define physical surfaces?

Bests,

Peng

          p_rgh = p-rhok*gh;
          p_rghEqn.setReference(pRefCell, getRefCellValue(p_rgh, pRefCell));

        p_rghEqn.solve(mesh.solver(p_rgh.select(pimple.finalInnerIter())));
This got me thinking: do the situations we're talking about here (closedVolume) actually need a reference pressure?

Although we're defining one in fvSolution with pRefCell/pRefPoint and pRefValue, isn't it superfluous?


I've been running some simulations with

Code:
p_rghEqn.setReference(pRefCell, getRefCellValue(p_rgh, pRefCell));
commented out and so far like what I've been seeing.

Hello, i have encountered same problem with you too. I knew this is too late, but have you found a solution for this problem? Please help..
