[Gmsh] structured mesh in a wedge

[Felix Salazar]

Hello,

All your surfaces should be Transfinite. And if they are bounded by 4
lines, you don't need to specify the corners. You might try:

Transfinite Surface {6} = {};
Transfinite Surface {21} = {};
Transfinite Surface {14} = {};
Transfinite Surface {18} = {};
Transfinite Surface {23} = {};

Recombine Surface {6,21,14,18,23};

Although, you might just need to increase the number of layers in your
extrusion. This PC does not have GMSH installed so I can't check your GEO
file
