Acces to points and faces
 

Hello,

I have a question regarding the acces to the "points" and "faces" file. These files were created by blockMesh. If I open them there's only a list of hieroglyphs.

Can somebody tell me how to obtain the data?

The core problem is to find out the order of the faces of one patch.

I would be infinitely grateful for your help!!!

Hi,

It sounds like you need to change binary format to ascii in system/controlDict and than run:

Than you will at least have all the data in readable format.

But it may also be interesting to load the data in paraview and use the generate Ids filter.

Best Regards,
Tom
