Hi foamers,

like posted in another thread there is a problem with producing tecplot 360 data using foamToTecplot360 utility contained in OF-1.6.x.
Attached is a simple 3D interFoam test case (icem mesh, 1000 cells, initialized with funkySetFields).

Typing foamToTecplot360 produces

...
Err: (TECZNE112) Wrong number of data values in file 1:
17469 data values for Zone 1 were processed,
9369 data values were expected.
writeEnd
Err: (TECEND112) Wrong number of data values in file 1:
22469 data values for Zone 1 were processed,
9369 data values were expected.
...
#0 Foam::error:: printStack(Foam::Ostream&)

I have also tried with several other 3D cases and another solver without success. With that solver but 2D axisymmetric case it works fine.

Thanks for any help,
Peter.

I ran foamToTecplot360 and converts without errors and it looks ok as well in tec360.

Are you running an uptodate version of 1.6.x? Last changes are from January.

Thanks,

Mattijs

Hello Mattijs,

I have updated OpenFOAM-1.6.x with git two days ago and compiled it in Opt and Debug mode again.
I just tried it once more with "git pull" and the system told me that it is "already up-to-date".

Thank you,
Peter.

Hello Mattijs,

I have forgotten to tell you, that it is necessary to have more than one folder to cause the problem. With converting only one folder the error can't be produced. But I don't want to accuse you that you did not try...

Thanks again,
Peter.

Ok. It wasn't closing the faceZones file. I pushed a fix to 1.6.x. Alternatively use the

-noFaceZones

command line option.

Thanks for reporting,

Mattijs

Hello Mattijs,

thanks a lot again. That should help.

Dear Foamer,

We recently installed OF v.2 on different PC's. It works fine but only the foamtotecplot360 does not work and not recognized. We tried to recompile it, in file tecio, the runmake is done perfectly but it does not work again. I could compile the make files in the foamToTecplot360 folder. Could any one help me?

Thanks
Ehsan

Greetings Ehsan,

Start reading from post #10 on this thread: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...tml#post316981. The solution should be in that thread, no matter which installation you have made of OpenFOAM

Best regards and good luck!
