Hello,
I generate a mesh with StarCCM+ and I convert this mesh with ccm26ToFoam.
But when i see the mesh of ParaView, it's not the same mesh (some cells are cut but I have the same number of cell with openfoam and starccm+, look at the picture of http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/2034/netzvergleich.jpg).
Is there a problem for the presentation in paraView ? Must I check a option in this software ?
I thank you
Best regards
Simon Heintz

Hi

The std openfoam reader module for paraview do not display polys correctly.

use foamToVTK and open paraview and load the generated .vtk file which will be in a folder under your case called VTK.

Best regards
