When you look at it from -y-axis perspective (volume2.png), it looks good, and this would be my aim for the entire volume.

Which version of Gmsh are you using? Since you rely directly on the OpenCASCADE entities numbering (which will change across versions) I cannot test your file with the current Gmsh release.
