SampledSurface, can't find closed walk around surface
 

Dear All,

Trying to define a plane to obtain samples in the specified plane with the following lines of code,

plane xPl(xP[cellI],n[cellI]);
sampledPlane smpPl("smpPl", mesh, xPl,word::null,false);

But, I'm getting the following error message,

--> FOAM Warning :
From function Foam::cuttingPlane::walkCell
in file cuttingPlane/cuttingPlane.C at line 205
Did not find closed walk along surface of cell 148775 starting from edge 345139 in 1001 iterations.

size mismatch: field (674) != surface (673)

From function sampledSurface::checkFieldSize(const Field<Type>&) const
in file /scratch/nwinkler/ProgramFiles/OF1-5/OpenFOAM-1.5-dev/src/sampling/lnInclude/sampledSurfaceTemplates.C at line 42.

FOAM exiting

Is there a solution to get rid of the surface field mismatch?

All the best

The field and surface size mismatch still bothers me from time to time. Is there anyone that could at least explain why this is happening, please.

If there is a solution to get rid of this......

Thanks

Hi, nikwin

Have you found the solution yet? Thanks.

Hi Niklas,

I know this thread is quite old. But I recently encountered similar warning message for my case on OpenFOAM-v1612+, but it didn't even show size mismatch! Did you solve this problem or how did you get round it?

Kind regards,
Yeru

any updates on this problem?
