fixedJump Patch assignment on given surfaces
 
Hi Foamers,

I would like to create two patches from two given surfaces given in term of .stl files.
The two patches should represent the cylindrical inlet and outlet of a simple actuator disk ( trying to model a propeller with an actuator disk ).
Is it possible in your opinion to assign fixedJump boundary condition on these two surfaces for pressure and cyclic for velocity?
Until now I handled stl surfaces just as wall , but now I have something different.

If it were possible how to implement that? Originally my idea was playing with snappyHexMeshDict and let SHM recognize such surfaces as fixedJump instead of wall( I'm referring to the refinementSurfaces field in snappyHexMeshDict ) but of course it doesn't work :(

Thankss
