output the msh from CFX mesh to Fluent

March 12, 2009, 10:29

Hi,

I created the mesh using CFX meshing, and got a msh file. When I read this file into Fluent, it alwasy failed. The error message looks as follows

--------------------------- Building...

grid, face[0]->cell0[16777216] on thread 6 out of range (0<=cell<18135). Error: Build_Grid: grid error.

Clearing partially read grid.

Error: FLUENT received fatal signal (ACCESS_VIOLATION) 1. Note exact events leading to error. 2. Save case/data under new name. 3. Exit program and restart to continue. 4. Report error to your distributor. Error Object: () ---------------------------

FYI, my computer is 64-bit and I am using 64-bit workbench.

Thank all.

Do you have the 'advanced meshing' application in workbench? if you do, the workbench prject page, choose your CFX mesh file .cmdb, and on the left pane, choose 'Poceed to advanced Meshing'. Once opened in advanced meshing, go to the output tab, and choose to export to FLUENT. This should be able to give u a .msh file for FLUENT.

Hope that helps.
