Did you write out your Fluent file in ascii?

Could you please produce a trace-back and post it here.

Dear Hrv:
i use ICEMcfd to creat mesh for fluent,what is wrong with it?
it is a mesh file for hydrocylone,could the OpenFoam do the Numerical simulation for both air-core and particle in the hydrocylone?

You can produce a more detailed traceback if you recompile fluentMeshToFoam with full debugging. Just add to EXE_INC in Make/options the compilation options

-DFULLDEBUG -g -O0

and recompile.

Your mesh is invalid. Try running the attached version of fluentMeshToFoam and you will get a full error message. Of course, you need to compile it first.

Hi Hrv
i use ICEMCFD to creat this .msh file for fluent calculation. i am not quiet sure about my method of export the .msh file for fluent calculation in ICEM. i guess the problem may because of my operation. here is my operation:
1) make geo and premesh
2) right click the block tree and choose convert to unstructure mesh
3) choose fluent as solver
4) export msh
it that right?
i am not sure about "2)" ,but all my friends do it.
could you please help me?
thanks!

Fluent will quietly fix the mesh for you during the read. With all these broken meshes, if you can read them into Fluent and write them out again, the new case file will convert correctly.

In short, Icem, Gridgen and the like do not correctly adhere to Fluent mesh description and there isn't much I can do about it.

Hi Hrv
i use Tgrid to refine the mesh.and now i can convert it to Foam!thanks!
by the way,it there any application in foam for the multiphase flow in hydrocyclone ?or i need to write the application for my simulation?
