Good day,

I installed SALOME, generated geometry, generated mesh (netgen), saved mesh as mesh.unv. Could you explain, how get this mesh from OpenFOAM - so my attempts try to use neutralNetgenToFoam lead to error:

--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR : Attempt to get back from bad stream

file: mesh.unv at line 1.

From function void Istream::getBack(token& t)
in file db/IOstreams/IOstreams/Istream.C at line 44.

FOAM exiting

What's wrong - may be, it's need to use another types of mesh or something else ?

and if i try to use ideasUnvTo
 

and if i try to use ideasUnvToFoam i get:

--> FOAM FATAL ERROR : Cannot open file "mesh.unv"

From function ideasUnvToFoam
in file ideasUnvToFoam.C at line 504.

FOAM exiting

Need Help !

Dear Ruben,

did you have tets or hexes in your mesh?

if you send me your mesh.unv file, I can try it with my modification of the converter.

prism conversion error?
 

Hello Foamers,
I wanted to ask whether these issues have been fixed in the 1.5(-dev) version of OpenFOAM yet or not.

I have used SALOME to create a mesh which I hoped to use in 2D with "empty" patches on front and back. It is prismatic (or should be) and made following the process shown in this tutorial: http://www.caelinux.org/wiki/index.p...ELinux_2008.29

I keep getting an error with the ideasUnvToFoam converter with these meshes that says:
*snip*
Writing boundary faces to STL file boundaryFaces.stl

Constructing mesh with non-default patches of size:
Faces 1404
Interior 16
OutsideWalls 47



Trying to specify a boundary face 3(397 398 396) on the face on cell 144 which is either an internal face or already belongs to some other patch. This is face 702 of patch 0 named Faces.

From function polyMesh::polyMesh
(
const IOobject& io,
const pointField& points,
const cellShapeList& cellsAsShapes,
const faceListList& boundaryFaces,
const wordList& boundaryPatchTypes,
const wordList& boundaryPatchNames,
const word& defaultBoundaryPatchType
)
in file meshes/polyMesh/polyMeshFromShapeMesh.C at line 487.

FOAM aborting

Has anyone seen this issue? Was this part of the patching that is described in this thread?

Best regards,
