fluent3DMeshToFoam
Hi foamers ,
We know that for importing 2D mesh to openfoam (from GAMBIT) we can use fluentMeshToFoam -writeSets This command creates a Sets folder in the polymesh directory and you can see faces of all boundaries... How can I do this action for importing 3D mesh??? I want to importing a 3D mesh from GAMBIT to openfoam and I want to have a Sets file including faces of all boundaries.. any utilities? any commands??? Thanks and best regards, Sasan. |
hello,
In fact fluentMeshToFoam work with 3D mesh too, so the same with "-writeSets" will work. You can also use fluent3DMeshToFoam, which does almost the same as "fluentMeshToFoam -writeSets -writeZones". Regards, olivier |
Dear Olivier ,
fluent3DMeshToFoam -writeSets doesn't work...(I am using 1.6-ext) I appreciate any help.... Thanks, Sasan. |
hello,
This is because with fluent3DMeshToFoam, you don't need the "-writeSets" options, just "fluent3DMeshToFaom mesh.msh" will be fine. regards, olivier |
I want to have a Sets file including faces of all boundaries....for 3D mesh...
How can I do this action?? thanks, Sasan. |
I got it....
patchToFace can do this action... Sasan. |
Hi Sasan,
i am also dealing with fluent3DMeshToFoam, and i also need the sets file in polyMesh directory. As you also had the same problem, fluent3DMeshToFoam command doesn't create a sets directory inside of the polyMesh directory. You mentioned that patchToFace can do this actioin, but i am using openFoam 2.1.x, and i don't know how to create the sets file in 2.1.x. thanks Dogan |
Hi Dear dogan ,
You can use faceSetDict : Code:
/*--------------------------------*- C++ -*----------------------------------*\ Code:
faceSet I think this utility exists in all versions of OpenFoam. best regards, Sasan. |
Hi Sasan,
thank youz very much for your answer. I don't know why, but unfortunately i couldn't mabage to do it with faceSetDict. it may not be the right way but i tried something else, and it worked. i copied the points file in constant, to the rotor file in constant>sets. i know it souds so wrong, but it worked. thanks and regards Dogan |
