[mesh manipulation] Cgns to Foam

B6_lacen · February 17, 2022, 04:12

Hello,
I have a mesh in cgns format and I want to transform it in OpenFoam. (openFOAM V6 version)
Do I have to install a converter or is there a simple way to do it?

Thank you dear comunity

The CGNS converters can be a bit of a headache to get working. Also not up to date with the newer versions of OF. https://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/S...GNS_Converters

Salome has the possibility to import CGNS files in the Mesh program.
Maybe try importing into Salome and then export as UNV and use ideasUnvToFoam command.

Tried with the last file in this list.

Hello guys,

Any of you know if it is possible to install a pre-compiled version of cgnsToFoam in OpenFOAM for Windows (native version, mingw64)? I am trying to do something of the sort, but without success until now.

Thank you in advance.
