i am designing an heat exchanger and i have lot of patches to set boundary condition (more than 100), even though most of the boundary conditions are the same.

lets say i have fin1, fin2, .....fin100

cant i give boundary condition as

fin*
{
same boundary condition
}

you know just as in linux, when we use wildcards ?


thanks for reply in advance
