Hello everyone,

For a long time, i am experiencing OF with cases which are unstructured tetrahedral meshes. Those cases are really meshed very well including boundary layers and refined local regions. Cases are for external flow analysis, mostly transonic regime. Even though i tried lots of settings, i cannot run cases correctly. Whatever i tried is not good enough for tetra meshes. It seems OF works well with only hexa meshs, for best snappyHexMesh should be adviced.

Prof. Jasak advices reconCentral for tetrahedral meshes but it did not help me at all. Likewise pointLinear shows some improvements, but it is not enough too.

Is there anyone who can claim that i can run external flow dynamic cases which are made of tetrahedral meshes ?? I am really curious about what you got achieved?

Sorry for tough attitude, but the results make me really pissed off.

Have good days!

Edit: I can share a constant and 0.orig file, if you let me know how to share 80 mb zip file.
