<p>Hi,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>There are two files:</p>
<p>-plane.geo is just a definition file included in extruded.geo</p>
<p>-extruded.geo is the 3d geometry i would like to mesh.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The "extruded.geo" file is the right one, "plane.geo" is just a planar geometry, which i am then extruding to</p>
<p>certain z-value (height) in extruded.geo. It seems to me you were making 2d mesh, i'm trying to make 3d (extruded.geo).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The plane under the electrodes is substrate (plastic, foil...) on which electrodes are actually printed. I want to calculate</p>
<p>how the capacity of capacitor changes when substrate is changed. So basically it should be as near as possible to electrodes,</p>
<p>but not on the same plane as electrodes. Now, I have placed it at -1e-6 on z-axis and electrodes are at 0.0. Then I extrude</p>
<p>electrodes up to 0.01mm, and substrate down to -0.06mm. I also extrude the large bottom plane so it forms a big cube - this is the</p>
<p>surrounding air.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thank you!</p>

<div>Hi,</div>
I do not know if it is really wanted, but your mesh size cl3 is very small, which makes
<div>the plane under the electrodes extremely finely meshed. I have changed it ti 1 mm.</div>
<div>Second, the plane that is drawn on the electrodes is the same as the one where the electrodes are. </div>
<div>Is it normal ? If not, I have created 3 surfaces and this is what I get</div>
