[Commercial meshers] StarCCM meshes to convert for usage in OpenFoam

chia87 · February 3, 2016, 22:18

Dear all,

First of all i'm a begineer in OpenFoam, been using wavefoam for simulation of waves.

Now I've got hold of a star.ccm mesh file,
How do I get about placing the files at which directory and how do I convert it to Openfoam

Any help is appreciated thanks!

realised that I need to install ccm26ToFoam , currently looking at this http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...t-compile.html

However having trouble to save the 'files' and 'options' as I do not have permission

Im now trying to compile ccm26ToFoam

using this command, $FOAM_APP/utilities/mesh/conversion/Optional/Allwmake

I received this error that says it cant read my AllwmakeLibccmio

"/opt/openfoam30/applications/utilities/mesh/conversion/Optional/Allwmake: line 9: /AllwmakeLibccmio: No such file or directory"

My AllwmakeLibccmio (Binary file) was located at /opt/openfoam30/applications/utilities/mesh/conversion/Optional/ , but somehow when i run the code, the program have problem reading this file,

Did i commit any mistake anywhere?
