Netgen and surfacecheck
 
L.S.,

Can anyone explain me how to use the tool surfaceCheck? Do I have to compile it first? And how?
I have a geometry which is very hard to mesh in Salome, using Netgen. Allthough the build-in geometry checks in Salome say that everything is fine, meshing fails all the time.
If anyone is willing to check my files, I can send them. It don't manage to copy them in this post.

surfaceCheck is in the standar
 
surfaceCheck is in the standard release. The things to check for is that your surface is manifold/closed (i.e. every edge has two faces). Netgen has problems if your cell size is bigger than the feature size. Try meshing with more tets.
