1) The inlet/outlet labels where being constructed on dmSurface. I fixed
this.

2) The 14/7 faceIDs do not appear to be the ones you want. Here is
corrected source. Can you look at the labels?

  Thanks,

What most experimenters take for granted before they begin their
experiments is infinitely more interesting than any results to which their
experiments lead.
