| Summary | 0001486: renumberMesh mixes up wedge patches | ||||
| Description | After running renumberMesh on a mesh of wedge with blockMesh, warning messages similar to this appear for every cell. --> FOAM Warning : From function wedgePolyPatch::calcGeometry(PstreamBuffers&) in file meshes/polyMesh/polyPatches/constraint/wedge/wedgePolyPatch.C at line 72 Wedge patch 'symPlanePosX' is not planar. At local face at (0.00010079841 0.00018913757 -0.000748503) the normal (0.99905004 0.043577725 0) differs from the average normal (0.99905003 0.043577952 6.0446643e-21) by 5.1497575e-14 However, the checkMesh -constant returns that everything is OK. Running just blockMesh, without subsequent renumberMesh, the error messages to not appear and checkMesh -constant still returns that everything is OK. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | * Create a mesh of a wedge geometry with blockMesh * Run renumberMesh -constant * Run any application such as checkMesh -constant (the error appear when reading in the mesh, therefore even a solver could be run) | ||||

The renumbering is ok, it is just that the planarity check is quite strict. Are you running with binary writing? |
|
|
I am running on ASCII writing. Should I be running binary in order to avoid this issue? The issue was not there in 2.3 and only came after updating to 2.3.1 |
|
|
In general you want to run in binary if you're doing any kind of mesh manipulation. Or increase the writePrecision. |
|
|
Running in binary or increasing the writePrecision from 8 to 10 solves the problem. Thanks! |
