[snappyHexMesh] snappyHexMesh error

ianjikar · March 28, 2018, 20:03

Can someone guide me what kind of error is this? I have used the file from a tutorial and just changed the names of .stl file.

Hi,

As the error message says, you are missing the keyword "castellatedMeshControls"

If you are reusing an old snappyHexMeshDict, then the likely cause is that you have missed a ; or ) or } somewhere.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Hi Antimony,

Thanks for the reply. I checked the file for brackets, but there is no open brackets.

Hi,

Can you post your snappyHexMeshDict then? Becomes difficult to troubleshoot otherwise...

Inlet.stl, outlet.stl and sides.stl are boundaries of 50.stl. 50.stl is the internal porous volume.
