[Commercial meshers] Import fluent mesh

bruxellois4 · July 10, 2010, 17:57

Hi everybody

i would like to import to OpenFOAM a mesh i've got in Fluent. it was done under windows (i've used fromdos), then fluentMeshtoFoam but that doesn't work, this is the error message (and you can find the .msh here http://www.2shared.com/fadmin/148774...D10D3.dat.html).

// * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * //
Create time

--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:
cannot open file

file: /home/moumen/tfe/system/controlDict at line 0.

From function regIOobject::readStream()
in file db/regIOobject/regIOobjectRead.C at line 61.

FOAM exiting

HELP PLZZ!!

Hi,

you have to run fluentMeshToFoam from inside an OpenFOAM-case with at least the system/controlDict file inside.

Stefan
