[Gmsh] Boundary layer for complexe pipe geometry

[Francis Giraldeau]

Hello!

I'm trying to create a pipe for CFD using the Extrusion Wire command,
available with the OpenCASCADE kernel (using gmsh v4.6.0). The main
difference with tutorial t19.geo is that I added a Boundary Layer inside
the pipe.

I confirm that the simple translation extrusion works fine
(PipeBoundaryLayerSimple.geo):

However, using the Extrude Wire, the Boundary Layer is lost. I can confirm
that the original extruded surface has indeed the boundary layer
(PipeBoundaryLayerCurve.geo):

I understand that this seems in development. I can contribute, but I would
need some pointers as to where to start. My ultimate goal would be to mesh
a complexe pipe from a STEP file including a boundary layer.

For reference, I added all my test case in this repo:

Cheers,
