Hi Paul,

Thanks for your quick answer.

The boundary conditions of the box are :
- W on the 4 sides of the box,
- v for the inlet,
- O for the outlet,
- W for the 6 faces of the plate (placed at the center of the box).

I didn't try to do the mesh by tilting the box to do the incline, but I 
don't really see how to make it.

I'm using a MatLab program found on the mailing list of Nek 
(https://lists.mcs.anl.gov/mailman/htdig/nek5000-users/2010-June/000645.html).
I noticed that for each blank in the boundary condition the figure in 
the 4th and the 5th column were 0 (which seems to correspond to a BC 
like W, v or O).
    17650  3 *0* *0.00000* 0.00000 0.00000 0.00000

Best regards,

Hugo
