Hi I defined the physical surface for the fluid region and physical lines for the boundaries (see .msh file). However I keep getting the below error when I try to import the GMSH file into PyFR:
ValueError: Malformed physical entity I have tried defining physical lines for all boundaries, and also for just the inlet and cylinder surface, but get the same error. I couldn't find anything relating to this error in the GMSH documentation. Is this something I am not doing correctly when creating the mesh in GMSH? Thank you for your help.
