[OpenFOAM] Different Mesh quality using ParaView-4.0.1 and ParaView-3.12.

Mirage12 · August 8, 2013, 04:19

Hello

I am learning, how to use snappyHexMesh using Porsche-model.

After running SnappyHexMesh i opened the same case using #ParaView-4.0.1-Linux-64bit# and #ParaView-3.12.0-64bit#

And i got 2 different type of meshing

Right picture : using ParaView-4.0.1-Linux-64bit
Left picture : using ParaView-3.12.0-64bit

Why ? and How ? I am really confused !

Thanks a lot !!

I'm guessing snappyhexmesh has the castellated mesh and the snapped mesh in different time steps, and you are not looking at the same timestep in those screenshots.
