Redrakham New Member Abhijit Join Date: Aug 2020 Location: India Posts: 27 Rep Power: 5	I want to solve vortex-induced vibration of a cylinder in a duct. I have solved the flow in a duct without the cylinder and then I want to map the fields from the cylinder-less problem to the problem with the cylinder in a duct. Both the geometries have same dimensions. But when I tried to map the fields the error comes: --> FOAM FATAL ERROR: Incompatible meshes: different number of patches, fromMesh = 6, toMesh = 7 I think the reason is with the cylinder case I have to add the cylinder patch. Is there anyway to map the fields with different number of patches? I have attached the two meshes: without_cylinder.jpeg with_cylinder.jpeg Thank you in advance.
