I want to create a geometry using freecad, and to mesh it with OpenFOAM. Let's say that I want to prepare a channel with an inlet, an outlet and four walls. Do you know any step-by-step tutorial to do this? I can build this (very easy) geometry, but I can not create the patches. 2. if I have a step file, which is the best way to import it, create the patches that I need and mesh it? Thanks a lot, Samuele Last edited by samiam1000; October 24, 2017 at 08:18. Reason: The issue has been solved
