ICEM to CFX (maybe rookie) question

TheBearJew · November 22, 2011, 09:52

Hello!
To learn ICEM+CFX I'm doing their own tutorials.

Now I've done the ICEM PipeBlade tutorial and after I have converted the mesh as structured I am not able to create a cfx input file.
I follow the steps shown in ICEM tutorial (i.e. Output tab--> solver and write Input file) but I alwaus have this error

Running ICEMCFD - CFX5 Interface Vers. 11.0.2
version mismatch
child process exited abnormally.

Someone can help me?

Thanks in advance.

I will answer by my self.

I was wrong because I was using structured mesh but CFX is not a structured solver. (Damn! I thought the opposite)

Anyway does someone know if CFD struct solver exist?

How much they are more performing than an unstruct one?

Simple, when conveting from premesh; convert to unstructured. Now you have a mesh which can be read by CFX.

Already done but thanks for your answer, anyway.
