[hammer]

I am trying to analyze the flow through a flat perforated plate kept at the middle of the duct.

Since it is of zero thickness, there will be connectivity issues when generating mesh. I am planning to make a structured mesh using blocking technique in ICEM CFD.

I would like to know if there is a way to unpaste the surface of the perforated plate such that the plate has imaginary thickness and hence two surfaces: top and bottom.

Thanks in advance!
