Hello!


When you have finished your blocking, convert to *.uns. Then, push the buttons (1) and (2) as shown in attached picture.
As Output Solver, chose Fluent_V6. Press OK.Push button (3) as shown in attached picture. Do not save project. Select the *.uns file and press OK again. You can scale your mesh in the panel if you need. When clicking Done, the mesh will be exported as *.msh which is readable by OpenFOAM fluentMeshToFoam converter. Save Project now.

Hey, I am pretty new to ICEM CFD. I have generated an unstructured mesh and want to export it to OpenFOAM in .msh format.

In all of the tutorials, export mesh is done using an output tab. Unfortunately, I don't see an output tab in my software.

Is there any other way to get the .msh file? Already tried reinstalling ANSYS

Thanks
