Hi

I am just wondering if this is possible.
I have a 3D rectangular domain. It is meshed in ICEM with unstructured grid, save to fluent .msh and converted in openfoam using fluent3DMeshToFoam.
But when I try to run it, it says the number of faces does not match on the two patches that I set as cyclic. Is there a way to work this out without remeshing the faces with a structured grid? If not, does my way of generating and exporting mesh works when I put a structured surface mesh on both sides?

Thanks in advance

Cheers,
Tom
