setFields tool does not assign water volume for given mesh.

Good day to everyone!

I already described my problem in different threat, however, since it is not particularly related to Gmsh, but to setFields tool I post the link to the other thread:
http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...-possible.html

I hope someone can help me. setFields tool is not assigning the water volume for a given mesh produced with Gmsh. checkMesh does not generate any errors. I'm able to use flattenMesh and refineMesh. No errors are produced, all seems to be fine. However while trying to assign a volume of fluid using setFields command for interFoam solver, the domain is not assigned.

Thanks,
K

hey ,paka

the format of boxToCell should be box(x_min y_min z_min) (x_max y_max z_max)

the same question can be found in
