Hello Everyone,
I am trying to create a mesh of simple room with one inlet and one outlet in gmsh. I have created geometry using the OpenCASCADE kernel with following script ......... //+ SetFactory("OpenCASCADE"); Box(1) = {0, 0, 0, 10, 10, 10}; //+ Box(2) = {1, 1, 1, 0.1, 1, 1}; //+ Box(3) = {9, 9, 9, 0.1, 1, 1}; //+ Physical Surface("Inlete") = {8}; //+ Physical Surface("Outlete") = {13}; //+ Physical Surface("Wall") = {4, 1, 3, 2, 5, 6}; Transfinite Line "*"= 10 ; Transfinite Surface "*" = 10; Transfinite Volume "*"= 10; Recombine Surface "*"; .......... Even though a 3D mesh is generating in gmsh, when I try to convert into the OpenFOAM mesh using the gmshToFoam command, I am getting an error showing "No 3D elements found". I am a novice user of gmsh so please suggest me some solution for this. Regards, Bhargav |

I'm not an expert and not 100% sure as I never encountered it before. But you are not defining a "Physical Volume". That could be a reason.
