Missing cells in surface sampling output

Hello!
I defined a surface sample in my controlDict and saved the output in VTK format. When looking at one of the outputs in paraview, I found that one of the surfaces has cells missing. The other surfaces I sampled did not have this problem. The difference (as far as I can tell) with this surface is that it aligns perfectly with the cell faces (I'm using a uniform hexahedral mesh). Any ideas why this might be? Could this be because of my interpolation scheme? I'm using OF 2.4.x Here is my sampling sub-dictionary: Code:
sliceDataInstantaneous { type surfaces; functionObjectLibs ("libsampling.so"); enabled true; outputControl adjustableTime; //outputInterval 1; //when using timeStep writeInterval 100; //when using asjustableTime //timeStart 18000; //timeEnd 20000; surfaceFormat vtk; interpolationScheme cellPoint; fields ( U ... ); surfaces ( ... slice_hub_centre { type plane; basePoint (1500 1500 90); normalVector (0 0 1); triangulate false; } ... ); } |
