Apply SU2 in my own air-foil and wing
Hi community,
I'm trying to use SU2 to study my own air-foil and wing. I had install the last version of SU2 in ubuntu and I did some tutorial. In this moment I want to test my air-foil in SU2 but I don't know how I do. How I put my air-foil in SU2 program? Is it possible SU2 generate an automatic mesh for my cause? Thanks a lot, João Lourenço Student of Aerospace Engineering |
Hi,
there is no mesh generator included in SU2. The standard way to import an own mesh into SU2 is to export it as a CGNS file, which then can be read by SU2 by setting the option Code:
MESH_FORMAT= CGNS Best regards, Ole |
SU2 in my airfoil - Pointwise program

If I understand I need to use o program to generate my own mesh in my profile, export it as a CGNS file and then put in SU2 program, right? I'm try to install pointwise but I can not find the program. Someone can help me? |

But let me just mention that by now there a mesh generators that can directly export the mesh in .su2-format (like gmsh), so in these cases there is no need for the transfer via CGNS. |

Gmsh has very basic functionality, Pointwise is a professional and commercial program. You can't compare them.
There are lots of(!) meshing tools out there. You'll have to try out a few if you have never worked with any of these kind of programs before - each one has it's very own advantages and disadvantages. |
