Hi everybody,


I'm currently working on a quite complex geometry and to avoid both a too fine background mesh and a too high level of refinement, I'm trying to improve the background mesh on the external surface of my body (using refineMesh) and then use that as a background mesh.
That process works fine but then, when I use snappyHexMesh I got some errors that depends on the polyhedric cells that appear in the background mesh after the refinement.

I was wondering if there's a way to use >refineMesh and get only hexes from that.


Thank you in advance!
