This is more an answer, than a question.


I have created a geometry with Salome, and created a tet mesh, which I exported in the UNV format. The next step was to convert the mesh using the converter ideasUnvToFoam.

However, I only got this far:

I tried various versions of OpenFOAM, to no avail. However, when I tried using my foam-extend-4.0 installation, the error message contained the vital hint

FOAM aborting

It turned out, that I messed up my definition of face groups in Salome. Thus, the converter tried and failed to assign the same boundary face to more than one patch.

The error message of the ideasUnvToFoam converter of my foam-extend installation actually reports this error. The ideasUnvToFoam converter of the (foundation) OpenFOAM installations fail with no hint in that regard.

Lessons learned:
  • Keep several OpenFOAM and foam installations on your system, they might turn out to be handy
  • The [CODE]Assertion `nouveau > -1' failed/CODE] error might be caused by duplicate face group membership

Yes. This is true. It happened with me when I had grouped the same patch under two different names.
