Hi

I am using the gridgen 15.08, and beginner.

I generated meshes with 6 domains around NACA0012 airfoil.

During the creating structured block, there is a error message as below.
Block -> Create -> Assembles Faces -> Add 1st Face

"The selected domain does not connect to the developing face in an appropriate manner. Try again."


I can not selet only one domain
please advise me.

Wow, getting all nostalgic with Gridgen. It's been a while since I've even opened Gridgen.

Anyway, enough with the trip down memory lane. Basically, you can't make a single block with your domain topology. Make two blocks (e.g. 1 for top 3 domains and another for bottom 3).

If you want a single block you'll have to go with a C or O topology. The 2D Airfoil tutorial in Gridgen is a C topology.
