solving problem after converting fluent mesh to faom

sangram · November 14, 2016, 08:37

Hello everyone,
I have imported mesh (.msh) file from fluent to OpenFoam. I am using chtMultiRegioSimpleFoam solver. I have specified corresponding boundary conditions in the "0" folder. After running " ./Allrun " I am getting following error message in log file-

Please let me know if anyone has idea about this error message

Create time

--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:
cannot open file

file: /home/anv25/OpenFOAM/anv25-2.4.0/run/tutorials/heatTransfer/chtMultiRegionSimpleFoam/heatsinkkk/constant/regionProperties at line 0.

From function regIOobject::readStream()
in file db/regIOobject/regIOobjectRead.C at line 87.

You need to define a file called 'regionProperties' in case 'constant' directory which specifies the regions for fluid and solid. Please check one of the tutorial cases for chtMultiRegionSimpleFoam solver.

When OpenFoam cannot find some file, I would google about the function of the file and provide OpenFoam with the file so that it can run without complaining.
