I built a mesh in OpenFOAM and I need to study my model in fluent.

Could you please explain what are the steps to follow to convert the mesh? I looked also in this forum but I could not find the basic information I need.

I tried to type foamMeshToFluent in the case directory but nothing happened, also in the User Guide there is no explanation on how to perform this conversion.

Thanks for the help.

Hi!


You need a format which is known for both programs. For example ensight. You can export to ensight from openfoam, and import ensight into fluent.
check foamToEnsight and foamToEnsightParts
