Hi Forum

I'm trying to simulate porous media using OpenFoam. The porous media is defined by a cellZone in OpenFoam which is a part of the internal mesh. I have without issues managed to solve the problem using the Salome mesher, where internally meshed volumes are automatically defined as cellZones when the mesh is exported.

My issue is that when I am using internal volumes in enGrid and exporting the mesh, the information about the internal cells is lost if the mesh is exported in for example gmsh format.

Does anyone know if there is a method where I can store this information ? Or is it possible to export the mesh with other methods where the internal mesh is stored as cellZone ?

The way it is set up can be seen here: http://imgur.com/c0WiOwl . It is the volume called porosity I want to define as a cellZone.
