Gooday all, pls am currently trying to mesh a car geometry i downloaded online, i changed the motorBike snappyhexMesh dict, by simply changing the motorBike.stl to R8.stl which is my own car geometry. on running snappyHexMesh on my terminal, the following errors were gotten.

Read mesh in = 0.02 s
Overall mesh bounding box : (-5 -4 0) (15 4 8)
Relative tolerance : 1e-06
Absolute matching distance : 2.29783e-05

For debug level (= 2) > 1 this is considered fatal

Maybe you could try using HELYX-OS. There is an ongoing discussion at http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...pyhexmesh.html

For some more detailed information about snappyHexMesh and running from the command line, see the article about SnappyHexMesh on the OpenFOAM wiki
