Hi,
I have some issues with converting my mesh to openfoam from gambit, going via ICEM.
If i I simply use the fluentMeshToFoam fluent.msh in openfoam it is no issue, but if i first import it in icem, output it without doing anyting and again running fluentMeshToFoam, I get this error:
--> FOAM FATAL ERROR:
Cannot find match for first face. cell model: hex first model face: 4(0 4 7 3) Mesh faces:
6
(
0()
0()
0()
0()
0()
0()
)

Is there something I have to do inside ICEM before the output, changing boundary conditions etc?
Of course I am changing some stuff in ICEM before outputting it, but since this doesnt work I have to start with this.
Any ideas?
Ansys people answers are appreciated.
