Finding Coordinates of Mesh Nodes

salijav · October 18, 2012, 08:02

Hello,

I want to create a mesh around an aerofoil and then use those points for my own solver. For this I need coordinate locations of all the nodes generated by the mesher so that I can use them for my program in C. Is there a way to get this data from any of the mesher. I would prefer Fluent but if that does not output coordinates, I can use other software. But which one is right for this.

Plz help.

Compared with looking for the coordinate of the model, I think the easier way is to generate the aerofoil with known coordinate locations.

Good luck
