Conjugate heat transfer mesh generation feature

Opened this issue · 1 comments

Presently, multiregion mesh cellzones in baraMesh are defined by using material points, it is not convenient to define many small cellzone regions. I think snappHexMesh has "cellZone inside" feature without using material points, if it can be added in baraMesh, it may be quite useful for "CHT" cases.

Hi @WangLei1478,
In snappyHexMesh, "cellZone inside" can only be used for a special case where the region is defined by only one closed face.
Even in that case, the surface should be designated for each region.
As a result, it just replaces specifying points with specifying surfaces.
Of course, I understand current method to specify a point is not the best UI for it.
There is a room for improving it, and we have plan for it.
By the way, it would be helpful for me to think about better UI if you can share your case - with many small cell regions.
Thank you.
