Definition of cellZones
 
Hello,

I'd like to import a mesh from ideasUnV-File format. The file contains information on a cellZone beside info on the boundary condition. I've modified the ideasUnvToFoam utility so that I can extract this information (i.e. a list of cells that belong to a zone) out of the .unv file.

The problem is how to add this info to my mesh.
How can I write this cellZone info in OF format?

Any hint where to start is welcome

Stefan,

Here's some code that should help give you some hints. The addCellZones() method can be readily adapted to your needs.

Dear Mark,

got it: I just looked at the gmsh-converter and implemented in my ideasUnv-converter.

It is now possible to define a group "rotCellZone" in cubit, that will be registered by the converter and a cellSet file will be written. Then it can be used together with a MRF code.

If anybody is interested to test out the converter, please drop me an email:

However, the converter is very much customized but can be easily adjusted.

cheers
Stefan
