[ICEM] ICEM and KIVA-3V

alexoem · August 11, 2017, 15:12

Hi Everyone,

I want to simulate a diesel engine using KIVA-3V. The combustion chamber has a complex geometry and I couldn`t use the pre-processor K3PREP to generate the mesh. I have already used ICEM to generate the mesh to KIVA but I think the processes very slow. Is it possible to use a third software to generate the mesh? I thought of generating a structured mesh in Hypermesh, which enable faster mesh generation, export to ICEM, apply the boundary conditions and export to KIVA-3V. Please, is it possible?

Many thanks!

Alex

hi everyone, i am very simulating engine. Now I want to learn and learn about CFD - KIVA 3V, but I do not have the software to download. I have a CFD-KIVA 3V free download send me. Thanks very much
