HI Everybody,
I have a simplified 2D Geometry and I want to mirror the Mesh to get a 3D Mesh. To explain this easily I have made a little drawing: 1 status quo with symmetry planes on the bottom 2 If I mirror the mesh at the bottom the symmetry planes doesnt vanish 3 thats how it should be How can I tell Icem to Mirror the mesh and to make the former symmetryPlane Faces to internal Faces? Thanks in Advance! Camoesas

I´ve choosen 'Merge Nodes' in the mirror menu, so far.
But I havent seen a special utility to merge volumes? How can it be done? Thanks

The solution is here:
http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ans...-symmetry.html Post #6 Altough I´ve selected 'Merge Nodes' as mirroring option it seems necessary to merge the nodes manually afterwards again. (Or set a really low tolerance in the first way) Afterwards it is possible to delete the symmetry plane.... Thanks
