topoSet for stl files
3 Attachment(s)
Dear All,
I am starting to work with topoSet and it is slightly confusing when it comes to using .stl files in it. My goal is bring set of batteries generating heat due to charging in chtMultiRegion solver. I have few questions that if someone could answer, it will be highly appreciated. 1) In snappyHexMeshDict when I set Code:
refinementSurfaces 2) My geometry composes of 32 rectangular boxes, but when I try topoSet using Code:
name battCellSet; 3) I would highly appreciate if someone could explain nearDistance and curvature values to me, what are the ranges of the values, etc. I tried reading through the topoSet.C file but my knowledge of understanding it is very low. Attaching my *Dict files. Thanks Owais - new to OFv6 |
Resolved but splitMeshRegions gives a fatal error
Hi all,
I was able to resolve it. I figured out all the cells saved through SHMDict were saved in constant/polyMesh/cellZones so the right settings for topoSet to utilise were these: Code:
{ Problem is when I use splitMeshRegions I get a Fatal Error! Create time Create mesh for time = 0 Using current faceZones to divide inter-region interfaces into multiple patches. Code:
--> FOAM FATAL ERROR: Any help! Thanks Owais |
Solution
Dear All,
So I figured out the error (well not really an error) was due to polyMesh/cellZones. There were 3 regions instead of 2. 1st cellzone: batt1 defined by SHMDict 2nd cellzone: defined by topoSet called batteries 3rd cellzone: also defined by topoSet called fluid learning: So just don't have additional names and it should be simple. Chose batt1 for both SHMDict and topoSet. Have a nice day. |
request
Dear Sir,
Would you please contact me by aerospace1365@gmail.com. Sincerely yours, Hosein Faramarzpour |
Dear Owais Shabbir
I have a problem with my STL file. it must be binary or ascii? where should I put as external point? exactly at the surface? Thanks, Farzad Quote:
