Dear all,

I have a problem that has been a long time, but I can not still solve it.

It's that I modify the chatmultiRegionFoam and add the potential equation in this solver. When I set up the case, I need to add two special patches on the positive and negative tabs of the prismatic battery, one is the Battery1Tab1In for the influx of current, and Battery1Tab2Out for the outflux of battery, which are shown in the figure 1.

I use the topoSet and createBafflesDict to create these patches,

But finally, I get the errorhow to solve this problem)
"
