Good pm to all, I would like to seek your help for the following:

I finished the meshing at Pointwise and imported the mesh to Fluent.

The shape of the imported mesh in the fluent is not what intended to do. The airfoil is missing. Can you please help me? Here are the photos

First thing this is neither Pointwise forum and nor fluent forum. On point wise forum there are very good people and they are expert in it.

Now to the point, make four files. Three files for three airfoils and fourth file for the outer domain. mesh them and export them. Import them in fluent. For first file (any one) use file > read. For next three files use append command. And then use interface panel to create interface for three airfoils with the outer domain.

Dear Mr Far,

For the forum, this is noted. I am just new here.

Anyway, what I've done is that I have 7 domains. What I've done is to select all these domains, select "Edit" and "Join". Then the 7 domains became only one done. Is it equivalent? Attached here are the screenshot.

Thank you very much in advance!

No. In this way you cannot get relative motion in Fluent. Use them separately.

Use append command in fluent to join them. Finally use interface to connect them mathematically. See image for append command.
