Hallo,


I got a fluent case file with a polyhedral mesh and two cellzones is there any possibility to convert this to OpenFoam?


I tried fluentMeshToFoam and got this:

with fluent3DMeshToFoam:

 FOAM exiting

I can convert the Mesh file with fluent3DMeshToFoam, but this is tet/hex and not polyhedral and checkMesh look like this:

Create time
 

 Create polyMesh for time = 0
 

 Time = 0
 

 Mesh stats
     points:           1786133
 checkMesh: malloc.c:3546: munmap_chunk: Assertion `ret == 0' failed.

If I use fluentMeshToFoam on the mesh file i got this error:

Has anyone an Idea?

Hi Christoph,

Have you converted your mesh to ascii?
