Hello all,
I'd like to define a volume using an OpenCASCADE Box entity, then subtract
a volume defined by an STL from it.
I have attempted to Merge my .stl file into the geometry with the
OpenCASCADE kernel already loaded, then attempt the same operation as
above. This is the behavior I expect to work, for instance, attempting:
SetFactory("OpenCASCADE");
> Merge "dingding.stl";
>
CreateGeometry;
>
Surface Loop(1) = {1};
> Volume(1) = {1};
>
// And some more stuff...
>
Unexpectedly ends up giving:
Error : Unknown OpenCASCADE surface with tag 1
> Error : 'dingding.geo', line 3 : Could not add surface loop
> Error : Unknown OpenCASCADE surface loop with tag 1
> Error : 'dingding.geo', line 4 : Could not add volume
>
And without OpenCASCADE, the volume gets created successfully.
Is it the case that OpenCASCADE and merged .stl files are incompatible at
the moment in gmsh? Ideally I'd like to generate a CFD mesh for an
obstruction ( from.stl file) in a channel (from OpenCASCADE geometry),
generating a boundary layer mesh as well around the STL file.
