Dear gmsh list,
firstofall, thanks for your help in the past. Currently I am working on a 2-D curved
surface with a low-Re boundary layer mesh. When I am trying to extrude it in the third
dimension I keep getting the error " Warning: Could not orient normal of surface
37". This occurs only when I have a huge amount of cells (like 40) in the normal
direction. Below you can see the minimal example. I would appreciate any advice.
Best regards,
Kate
