| Summary | 0004168: The refineMesh utility does not update cellZones |
|---|
| Description | When the refineMesh utility is run on a polyMesh with different cellZones. The cellZones file is not updated/changed. This results in cells that have no cellZone anymore.
I would have expected the refineMesh utility to put the split cells into the same cellZone that the original cell was. This makes directional refinement impossible to achieve with just a refineMeshDict on a mesh with different cellZones.
|
|---|
| Steps To Reproduce | I provided a test cast, where a blockMesh with different cellZones is created. Afterward, a cellSet is defined with the topoSet utility. Then in the final step a refineMeshDict is called and the cellSet is refined. When inspecting the cellZones in Paraview only 4 of the newly created cells have a cellZone. I am guessing they have the same ID as the original cells.
Run:
blockMesh
topoSet
refineMesh - overwrite |

| Additional Information | I think this could be a very cool Feature, since it would make the refineMesh utility an even more powerful tool than it already is. |
