Structured meshing using pointwise

m2205 · October 30, 2012, 09:39

Hi I am getting this error while assembelling the domains into a block:

ERROR ADDING FACES
Could not create block with selected faces. The last face will be removed.

I know that this comes when the block os not closed or the domains are not joined properly. I do not hink this is the problem with my grid.

Do you think orientation of domains might be the issue and how to determine what is causing the problem please?

You help will be appriciated.

Regards
M

There is sometimes very minor gaps between the connectors in any one domain which is not visible. But can be seen with zoom.
