Hexpress export Boundary groups to OpenFOAM

Hillie · May 26, 2017, 02:41

Hi all,

I have recently started using hexpress(V6.2) and it is very nice software.

The model that I am trying to Mesh has a number of faces who In Hexpress I have grouped together so that they represent my model.

If I now export My Hexpress mesh to OpenFOAM it doesn't take this grouping into account and therefore I get a large number of faces in OpenFOAM.

I was wondering if there is a way for hexpress to take the grouping into account, or does anybody know if an efficient method to redo the grouping in OpenFoam?

Cheers,
Hilbert

Dear Hilbert,

Maintain of group structure exporting to OpenFoam format is now implemented in Hexpress (but also in Hexpress/Hybrid) 7.1. So you just need to wait the official release.
