2D mesh export of an original 3D model -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

February 22, 2008, 14:14	2D mesh export of an original 3D model	#1
Yogendra Shastri Guest Posts: n/a	Hi, I want to simulate a 2D axisymmetric reactor model in FLUENT. My first doubt is: Do I need to creat a 2D mesh in GAMBIT? Or is it possible to creat an original 3D mesh and then export only the 2D mesh to be used in FLUENT? I tried the second option but got the following error while exporting the 2D mesh: "All mesh node must lie on the XY plane or a parallel plane within tolerence". Is there a particular method to creat the 3D mesh so that the 2D mesh can be exported? Thanks, Yogendra.
