Hello everybody,

I am trying to make mesh for three multiple material rectangular blocks. In may case there are three solid blocks one above another. constant/polyMesh/blockMesh is:

convertToMeters 1;

I have also made three different folders of solid 1, 2, and 3 in constant directory (for defining physical properties) and system directories (for defining fvScheme and fvSolution).

blockMesh run successfully. Then I run
splitMeshRegions -cellZones -overwrite
It is showing following error after running above command:

Create time

Create mesh for time = 0

Trying to match regions to existing cell zones.


Number of regions:3

Does any one have any idea why this error is coming. How can I fix this problem?

Thanks in advance.
