[mesh manipulation] Add a circle patch in cylindrical Mesh -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

KyriakosPaso New Member Kyriakos Paso Join Date: Nov 2018 Posts: 20 Rep Power: 8	Hello. I am new in openFoam, and I have a problem adding an inlet. My mesh is actually a cylinder, and i have to add 4 circular inlets at the top of the cylinder. I have tried to do this by creating the patches using the topoSet and createPatch utilities. However, due to the cylindrical mesh, it is very difficult to create circles. Can everyone help me with this problem? Is there any way to refine these patches in order to achieve nice circles? Thank you in advance!
