I want to draw a spherical wedge. Can anyone suggest me how should I draw this using COMSOL geometry?

I will highly appreciate your help.

Thanks

  1. You can create a 2D shape in a Workplane and then revolve it by some appropriate number of degrees, around an axis of your choosing.
  2. You can create an intersection of a sphere and an appropriate shape to yield your wedge. That shape might be a cone or a box or something else, depending on what you want your wedge to look like. If you can provide a drawing (even if done with pencil and paper) of what you are trying to make, it might help others to offer additional suggestions.

If this is what you want: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_wedge
.Then I recommend the first approach listed above.
