Closing the inlet - createBaffles

uosilos · June 28, 2021, 09:09

Hello

I have a mesh defined by a pipe that carries the air into a sphere. I have simulated the inlet process without problems.

Now I want to carry the simulation with the interface between the pipe and the sphere being a wall. I was trying to use createBaffles but when decomposingPar it shows:

Code:

Cannot find patchField entry

If possible, I would also want to get rid of pipe cells for a quicker simulation.

Thanks

It has been solved by patchFields inside createBafflesDict and then using the tool subsetMesh.
