Hi guys,

I generate a cylinder using ICEM, but OpenFOAM says its not closed. How can I modify this? Thanks.

Found 0 nearby points.

Surface is not closed since not all edges connected to two faces:
    connected to one face : 384
    connected to >2 faces : 0
Conflicting face labels:384
Dumping conflicting face labels to "problemFaces"
Paste this into the input for surfaceSubset

Number of unconnected parts : 3

writing part 0 size 7308 to "outerCylinder_0.obj"
writing part 1 size 384 to "outerCylinder_1.obj"
writing part 2 size 640 to "outerCylinder_2.obj"

I attached my .tin. just export it to .stl. then surfaceCheck.
