Hi,

I created a mesh in Ansys workbench and exported it as ascii msh file.

It's a external flow domain with a UAV (body, elevator and wing separate)

I then use OF's fluent3DMeshToFoam to convert it to OF's format.

Everything seems to work w/o error.

However, I realised that there's an extra BC appearing in the polyMesh/boundary file:

wall-solid1

type wall

I used paraview and found that it corresponds to small portion of the body surface. So what should I do?

Should I use createPatch to combine it with the body BC?

Also, why is there an extra BC? I n workbench, all the surfaces have been defined usign named selections.
