      The symmetry was set. However, I only defined one symmetry including both faces, which has no geometric sense. I have realized that have to define two separated symmetries.nThank you, Robn

      It is always better to split boundaries Aitor. In other codes you won't be able to define symmetries in this way . Glad that it is now working for you.
