Hi Rob,

Than you for helping me out.

  1. I was trying to get information on the interior faces but I realized that the zone-id I was using in the code did not allow me to do that. I was using a zone-id that belongs to the "Cell Zone Conditions". From what I understand now, these zones only store cell information as opposed to information on interior faces. Is this correct?
  2. If I instead use the respective zone id that is listed in the "Boundary Conditions/Internals", I can get information on the interior faces and there is no segmentation fault. The code runs.
  3. I want to determine the flux that goes into each cell of a porous media. Would it be possible to loop over cells and then over the faces of each cell? The reason why I ask this is because the zone-id for cells is separate than for faces so I am not sure how to approach this task.
