Hello community,

There is obviously something wrong with the Hex-Dominant mesh within Fluid Model Creation app.

The generated mesh of a very simple test case leads to a "line". Please look at below picture and following instructions to reproduce issue.

NOTA: the installation is up to date Build day: 07-29-2022.22.00 (internal build level: 6.424.6.0)

Steps to reproduce error:

1- Create a simple 3D pad with Part Design (let say 100x100x20)

2- Open Fluid Scenario Creation app

3- Go to Model section, then Setup and click Fluid Domain

4- Select the Pad as Part, create an exterior bounding box (let say +200, -200 for X, Y and Z)

5- Select a face for the Region, and click OK to close Fluid Domain dialog box

6- Go to Mesh and use Hex-Dominant Mesh. Click on Initialize from support to get maximum and mininum size. Click Mesh

7- As a result, you will get a "line"

Could you please enlighten me?
