Export CharLES Voronoi meshes to OpenFOAM?

Fidelity CharLES uses a Voronoi mesh which has properties which are beneficial for accurate CFD results. I'm interested in comparing results on these Voronoi meshes with standard tet, hex, or poly meshes. Is there a way to export Fidelity CharLES meshes to a format that can be read by OpenFOAM?

Hi,

The Voronoi mesh format used by Fidelity™ Charles is tightly coupled to the solver discretization and currently cannot be exported for other finite volume codes.

Best regards,
Colinda
