BUG: snappyHexMesh: searchableCone incorporates other searchableSurface patches into its patch

Summary

Whenever geometry:searchableCone is used in combination with other searchableSurfaces (e.g. searchableBox) in snappyHexMesh, many faces from other searchableSurfaces patches are joined (spill) to the resulting patch of searchableCone.

Below shows a case where a searchableBox and searchableCone were input.

Visualisation of cone1 patch, only:

1-cone1

Visualisation of box1 patch, only:

1-box1

Note:

  • Separate input of searchableCone and searchableBox produces the desired output.
  • Using two or more searchableCones produces the desired output (i.e. separate patches for each searchable.
