I am creating three dimensional cube with reactangular coordiate system and exactly at the center I want to creat sphere with spherical coordiate system. I can create them as and where I want but finally it given connectivity error, it shows some of the unconnected regions. Does anybody know about it. Thank you in advance.

Dear Joern. Thanks a lot for your help. I do appreciate the time and consideration.

Dear Joern,

I experience little problem running this script. Can you please check the script again. I am very thankful for your kind help. I udestood most of the script. And finally it gives 'Connectivity' error. Thank you for your time and consideration. Regards,

Sameer

I moved the line "loca 10 sphere" to the top of the code. So coordinate system 10 was not active when it should be for the "vmod" command.

Just add a "csys 10" before the first "vmod vset 0.5"

Dear Joern,

Thanks a lot for your help. Can you please check the following command lines. I am creating solid sphere exactly at the center of the cube which is filled of the water. I have all the commands. i can successfully create the cube and sphere inside it. But it gives connectivity erroe and shows two groups of cells. Please run the following script

Can you please let me know how to remove this error of connectivity. And that will be all for my problem.

Thanks

Sameer.

Coupling between fluid and solid cells is not allowed.

Then what is the best idea to proceed further. How do I remove that connectivity error. I went through manual and applied all the possible commands like Vmerge and all but still it shows error in that. I am clueless at this point of time. Thanks

Sameer

Couples are not allowed between fluid and solid regions. So don't do the "crefine" for only the solid cells.

Run the macro without the crefine at all to see what you get and use some more cells for the initial block.

Cell are sometimes left-handed after a vcextrude command. Just open the check-tool and use the option "right-handed". Then click on "fix left-handed".

Here is the complete macro:
