Hi,


Currently trying to set up a simulation for a car with rotating wheels. I've made my mesh with cfMesh, with 7 distinct patches - those being the external boundaries and the car itself.



I'd like to apply rotating velocity patches to just the wheels as a starting step, however I'm unsure how to specifically choose the wheels to apply this patch to as they're part of the entire car patch itself.


Does anyone know how to extract the wheels only to apply the rotating velocity to them?
