foam Mesh to Fluent
I'm trying to get foam mesh converted to fluent with
foamMeshToFluent I'm not sure how to get this correct ... my fluent mesh is missing all the cellZone information. So I dont have any additional fluid/porous zones in the mesh converted in fluent format .. Any help appreciated .. thanks |
Hi tachyon_me,
let me know ! It is 2D or 3D? |
Thanks, it's 3d mesh. I was able to get them after splitting the mesh based on cellzones. Let me also know if there are quick and better way of doing ....
|
use fluent3DMeshToFoam and let me know ...
|
Code:
fluentMeshToFoam myMesh.msh -writeSets -writeZones -scale 0.001 Cheers, Gijs |
Thanks , Thats helpful...
But In my case I would like to convert SnappyHexMesh "FOAM Mesh" to fluent format while keeping all cellZone as separate fluid zones in fluent... I guess for this matter I cant do foamMeshToFluent -time 4 -writeSets -writeZones But otherwise if you would like to convert fluent mesh to foam the command suggested by Wierink works without a problem ... |
hello every one
hi
how i run my openfoam case in to fluent. because when i apply foamDataToFluent then it only convert .dat file but how i generate case file? plz tel me |
Hi,
as I see, the problem of exporting the correct region names from a foamMesh to fluentMesh is still present in foamMeshToFluent command. The whole domain is exported, all the regions, but without any distinctive label, merged under the same placeholder / default region name. How can one overcome this limitation? How does the splitting method works that is mentioned earlier? I came up with this one: Code:
splitMeshRegions -cellZonesOnly -makeCellZones -overwrite |

Are you now able to solve this limitation for foamMeshtoFluent? |
Hi all,
I manage to export a mesh from fluent to OpenFoam; however, when I check the mesh (command checkMesh), I have 5 failures (see below). In addition, when I initialized the case I received a warming (see below). Anybody knows how to solve this problem? Thanks. CheckMesh Code:

Dear all,
it is a bit terrible to read through this thread because everybody is talking about different things. The thread starter mentioned that he wants to convert an OpenFOAM mesh to a fluent mesh and not vice versa. Based on that, he had problems in converting the cell zone information. Thats simply because in the foamMeshToFluent application this is not considered. I am also looking for some modification to get the cellZone information. Does anyone has done this already or can provide a *.msh file with cellZones (simple cube with two cellZones and 100 cells) in ascii format? If yes, I can make a workaround and solve the problem. |

Dear Tobi,
I came across this post and I thought I could post a mesh. It would be great if you could provide the CFD communitiy a workaround ;) Thanks for the help! Rob |
Dear Robert,
my colleague does not need it anymore and I have a lot of things to do. I will check it out - maybe during the weekend but I cannot promise it. If I will succeed, I will kindly ask Henry Weller to patch the application. Thanks for your help. |

The reason is that FVUS-wildkatze solver can convert from Fluent and from starccm to its format. FVUS can also write in fluent format (i need to check if current version has but i know that there is code to write fluent file somewhere so its not a big deal). This opens up possiblity of openfoam users to use FVUS too, so it does interest me. |
You can just check out the foam converters. I think you will find all necessary information there. If you have a foamToFluentMeshExtend converter, please let the community know. I have not time to investigate into that right now.

I don't know how to fix this, but you can go around it.
use foamToEnsightParts. You can import the part to fluent (file -> import -> Ensight) |
Use
foamMeshToFluent within the OpenFOAM case directory. It will create a folder fluentInterface in which you will find the OF mesh in fluent format. This command works with OpenFOAM 4.1. |
