[cfMesh] CfMesh v1.1.2 not working as expected with OpenFOAM 8

akashpatel95 · January 21, 2021, 01:34

I have tried meshing same geometry (bunny mesh in cfmesh examples) with OpenFOAM 5/6/7, and OpenFOAM 8. It works flawlessly when compiled with OpenFOAM 5/6/7 but fails to complete the process (stuck at "found x inverted boundaries") when compiled with OpenFOAM 8.

Meshers I have encountered same problem with are Cartesian2DMesh, CartesianMesh, tetMesh, and pMesh.

Has anyone tried using CfMesh with OpenFOAM 8?

Hey,
can you please tell, how you edit the /meshLibary/Make/Options file.
I cant even install cfMesh on OF8. I got an Error if i execte ./Allwmake > log.make 2>&1

Best regards
Kai

Can you post your error log here? I can help you with that.

Kahnbein.Kai · February 15, 2021, 12:20

Thank you very much.

I downloaded the cfMesh-v1.1.2.tgz folder unzip it, and copied it to my OF8 folder in "~/OpenFOAM/kai-8".

I edited the "cfMesh/meshLibary/Make/Options" file like this:

Code:

ifeq (Gcc,$(findstring Gcc,$(WM_COMPILER)))
OMP_FLAGS = -DUSE_OMP -fopenmp
else
OMP_FLAGS =
endif

ifeq (OpenFOAM,$(findstring OpenFOAM,$(WM_PROJECT)))
ifeq (Int,$(findstring Int,$(WM_LABEL_OPTION)))
CFMESH_MACROS = -DNoSizeType
LIBS =
else
CFMESH_MACROS =
LIBS =
endif
endif

ifeq (v, $(findstring v, $(WM_PROJECT_VERSION)))
CFMESH_MACROS += -DOpenCFDSpecific
endif

ifeq ($(WM_PROJECT), foam)
VER := $(shell expr `echo $(WM_PROJECT_VERSION)` \>= 3.2)
ifeq ($(VER), 1)
CFMESH_MACROS = -DExtendSpecific -std=c++11
LIBS = -lmeshTools -ledgeMesh
else
CFMESH_MACROS =
endif
endif

EXE_INC = \
$(OMP_FLAGS) $(CFMESH_MACROS) \
-I$(LIB_SRC)/triSurface/lnInclude \
-I$(LIB_SRC)/surfMesh/lnInclude \
-I$(LIB_SRC)/meshTools/edgeMesh/lnInclude \ 
-I$(LIB_SRC)/meshTools/lnInclude

 LIB_LIBS = $(LIBS)

If i execute the order "./Allwmake > log.make 2>&1", this logfile will made:

Code:

If i try "sudo ./Allwmake > log.make 2>&1"
this will appear:

Code:

I have uploaded my version here. https://github.com/akashaero/CfMesh-OpenFOAM-8

See if you can compile this one.

Akash

Kahnbein.Kai · February 15, 2021, 14:07

Hey Akash,
thank you very much, i downloaded it, copied and run the ./allwmake script.

Unfortunatley it didnt work. For example the cartesianMesh command didnt work.
Here is the logfile

Something occured to me, how is OF8 linked in you "~/bashsrc" file.
At mine, its only this line.

Code:

source /opt/openfoam8/etc/bashrc

Is yours different ?

Best regards
Kai

akashpatel95 · February 15, 2021, 14:24

Kai,

I have Openfoam 8 installed from the source in my home directory so mty source path in ~/.bashrc looks like this

source ~/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-8/etc/bashrc.

But I do not think that is what's causing the problem. Can you run al other Openfoam solvers and mesh utilities?

Kahnbein.Kai · February 15, 2021, 14:48

Ok, yes all other "native" commands e. g. blockMesh, snappyHexMesh, interFoam are works flawlessly. Best regards Kai

Kahnbein.Kai · March 1, 2021, 13:13

Hello,
its me again. So im going further, on my investigation, but a clue why the installation dont work at all i still dont have.

I even tried the Options File from the CfMesh at OpenFoam7, where the installation works flawlessly.

I executed the "env" command on my of7 and of8 installation. For my it seems very simular, so i dont realy sees any differents.

Maybe the experts do ?

Here is the return at OpenFoam7

Is there any note why the isntallation dont work problably.

Best regards

It looks like someone is maintaining an updated fork for CfMesh which is compatible with OpenFOAM 8.0. Try this and see if this works

https://sourceforge.net/p/cfmesh-cfd...i/master/tree/

as a test, I have

1. tried to compile the version above in the github link on OpenFOAM 8 installation, no success.
It did not compiled at all.

2. tried to compile the version above in the sourceforge link on OpenFOAM 8 installation.
It did compiled but many features are not working such as pMesh, tetMesh.

cartesianMesh seems working though...

January 21, 2021, 01:34	CfMesh v1.1.2 not working as expected with OpenFOAM 8	#1
akashpatel95 New Member Akash Patel Join Date: Dec 2018 Location: Champaign, IL, USA Posts: 20 Rep Power: 7	I have tried meshing same geometry (bunny mesh in cfmesh examples) with OpenFOAM 5/6/7, and OpenFOAM 8. It works flawlessly when compiled with OpenFOAM 5/6/7 but fails to complete the process (stuck at "found x inverted boundaries") when compiled with OpenFOAM 8. Meshers I have encountered same problem with are Cartesian2DMesh, CartesianMesh, tetMesh, and pMesh. Has anyone tried using CfMesh with OpenFOAM 8? __________________ We are developing an open-source software for constructing reduced order models for your CFD simulations in OpenFOAM that runs several magnitude faster.

But I do not think that is what's causing the problem. Can you run al other Openfoam solvers and mesh utilities? __________________ We are developing an open-source software for constructing reduced order models for your CFD simulations in OpenFOAM that runs several magnitude faster.

akashpatel95 New Member Akash Patel Join Date: Dec 2018 Location: Champaign, IL, USA Posts: 20 Rep Power: 7	It looks like someone is maintaining an updated fork for CfMesh which is compatible with OpenFOAM 8.0. Try this and see if this works https://sourceforge.net/p/cfmesh-cfd...i/master/tree/ Kahnbein.Kai likes this. __________________ We are developing an open-source software for constructing reduced order models for your CFD simulations in OpenFOAM that runs several magnitude faster.

mzzmrt Senior Member Join Date: Mar 2014 Posts: 112 Rep Power: 12	as a test, I have 1. tried to compile the version above in the github link on OpenFOAM 8 installation, no success. It did not compiled at all. 2. tried to compile the version above in the sourceforge link on OpenFOAM 8 installation. It did compiled but many features are not working such as pMesh, tetMesh. cartesianMesh seems working though...
