I have a geometry of human airway tree. I have done the meshing using snappyhexmesh flange tutorial. Now I need to create patches to define boundary conditions.
When I am doing 'autopatch' it is creating too many surfaces which I don't need. I need patches only at trachea inlet and outlet. Please help me in solving the issue. I am attaching mesh for your convenience. Screenshot from 2020-02-03 17-35-52.jpg |

Hi
Use paraview to select the cells you want to use and export to stl. Then use surfaceToPatch command to make the stl into a boundary condition. See this post. Splitting the Boundaries
