Hello everyone,

I want to convert my mesh file from Pointwise to OpenFoam. I am doing with following steps,

1. Open the mesh file in Pointwise.

2. With CAE menu, select "Select Solver" and choose OpenFOAM.

3. Re-check boundary patch types.

4. Select all of the blocks and go to File --> Export --> CAE, navigate to a folder where I want to save files.

5. It generates boundary, faces, neighbour, owner and points files.

Then what to do next to open mesh in OpenFoam ?

Can anyone help me ?

With regards,
Gitesh
