    Hi <br>
    <br>
     Thanks a lot for the reply and it worked. <br>
    <br>
    I have couple of more questions <br>
    <br>
    1) How can I create a .rea for a specific geometry say ' A sudden
    expansion pipe ' or a ' Diverging pipe ' <br>
    <br>
    2) What tool I should use to create that mesh. <br>
    <br>
    <br>
    Thank you<br>
    <br>

            <br>
            I am using VisIT for nek5000, I tried some of the tutorials
            from Nek5000.<br>
            <br>
            I was able to launch and create the metadata file for
            Eddy_uv example.<br>
            <br>
            I tried to do the same for the Helix Pipe example but when I
            loaded the metadata file into VisIT, I got an error saying
             " The first time step in a Nek file must contain a mesh "<br>
            <br>
            This is my metadata file for the pipe helix example<br>

            Can some one tell me how to add mesh to the first time step.<br>
