ICEM>fluent Error- while importing mesh

shookybal · July 13, 2013, 13:52

Hi Guys,

I have created a 3D mesh in ICEM and recieve the following error while trying to import it to fluent:

Building...
mesh
Error:
Partition: cell count = 0; count must be greater than zero.
Error Object: #f

Primitive Error at Node 0:
Partition: cell count = 0; count must be greater than zero.

Primitive Error at Node 1:
Partition: cell count = 0; count must be greater than zero.

Primitive Error at Node 2:
Partition: cell count = 0; count must be greater than zero.

Primitive Error at Node 3:
Partition: cell count = 0; count must be greater than zero.

I am new to ICEM and probably doing something wrong.
Your help will be appreciated.

Shooky

make sure you import a 3D grid into fluent 3D.
I tried to open it in 2D mode by mistake
