Hi all.

Wondering if anyone can help with this. I am a new user, sorry for any stupidities.

I am trying to develop a tetra mesh for the inlets and outlets of a counter-current heat exchanger. The problem is that ICEM computes the mesh in one end of the heat exchanger outside of the boundary surface. This happens whether I compute just one side or both at the same time. Weird thing is, one side is as it should be, the other is not.

The surfaces are created by copying two curves from the end of the geometry by the transform geometry function, then creating a surface between the two new curves. The same for the other end of the heat exchanger. I do the exact same thing for both ends, but it still turns out wrong.

Please refer to the attached picture in the link.
