Rename part of a boundary patch

Arnoldinho · July 6, 2011, 08:21

Hi all,

I'm nut sure if (but hope that) there is a utility to do the following: I have a mesh with boundary patches, e.g. with bottom at the lower boundary, and I afterwards want to rename a part of the bottom batch to bottom2.
So something like a cellSet (giving coordinates) to look for boundary patch faces, rename part of the boundary patch to boundary2 and update all variables in the constant/polymesh dir.

Is there something like that?

Arne
