Hello everyone,

I've noticed that snappyHexMesh does not allow to specify two different types of refinement for one region. Moreover, it doesn't complain or give any warning if I attempt to do it but the the refinement is not applied.

Code:
refinementRegions
    {
        somePart
        {
            mode        inside;
            levels      ((1E15 1));
                mode    distance;
                levels  ((0.08 1));
        }
    }
Did anyone else experience this?

I solved it by creating a second refinement zone using the same definition (or a dynamic link to the same .stl file) as the first zone. Then I give two parts in the refinementRegions with each of my requests.

Code:
refinementRegions
    {
        somePart
        {
            mode        inside;
            levels      ((1E15 1));
        }
        somePartCopy
        {
                mode    distance;
                levels  ((0.08 1));
        }
    }
I think it should be fairly simple to at least add at warning and would help the user.

Regards,


-Louis
