Hi,

I'm using OpenFOAM 1.4.1 and I have any problems with ideasCsToFoam. I can not export meshes generated in Salome to OpenFOAM. When I do it using this comand:

~/OpenFOAM/delio-1.4.1/run$ ideasUnvCSToFoam . icoPlaca /home/delio/salome_3.2.6/SAMPLES_SRC_3.2.6/Unv/PlacaOrificio.unv

The following message appear to me:

Now, thanks for attention

Hi,

I'm trying to convert a refined mesh from ICEM to openfoam. The only formats that support this kind of mesh is ideas or cfx5. As cfx5 cannot be converted to openfoam then IDEAS should be the path to follow.

I'm able to convert the internal mesh but ideasUnvToFoam fails to read the patches. I'm afraid it could be something related with the 7 index at the beginning of the lines. I post part of the .unv file:

INLET
7 2 0 0 7 4 0 0
7 6 0 0 7 8 0 0
7 10 0 0 7 12 0 0
7 14 0 0 7 16 0 0
7 18 0 0 7 20 0 0
7 22 0 0 7 24 0 0
7 26 0 0 7 28 0 0
7 30 0 0 7 32 0 0

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
