Maintain patchs in interior mesh for SHM in multiRegion
 
Hello to all,


I have the following example geometry:
Where a fluid domain is inside a solid domain.

https://ibb.co/g7HPVp3




When I generate a mesh with SHM, all of the patches in the fluid region are transformed into e.g., "fluid_to_solid".


Is it possible to main the patches and have: inlet_to_solid. outlet_to_solid, walls_to_solid?


Kind regards

Ok.. Not ideal but I was able to get my patches with topoSet.


Example:

Code:

actions
(
    {
        // Mandatory (inherited) entries
        name        outlet;
        type        faceZoneSet;
        action      new;

        // Mandatory entries
        source    searchableSurfaceToFaceZone;
        surfaceType triSurfaceMesh;

        surfaceName outlet.stl;
    }

    {
        // Mandatory (inherited) entries
        name        fluid_to_solid;
        type        faceZoneSet;
        action      delete;

        // Mandatory entries
        source    searchableSurfaceToFaceZone;
        surfaceType triSurfaceMesh;

        surfaceName outlet.stl;
    }
);

Anyone with a better solution for this?
