Hi dear Foamers,
I have a simple cube geometry and I want to export data to tecplot for postprocessing. I am using of41 and trying to simulate with buoyantBoussinesqPimpleFoam. First I tried to export data by using foamToTecplot360, but Tecplot is unable to load faceZoneMesh file and shows an error like this "One or both of nodes of face 6 cannot be found on any other face of element 5 in the polygonal zone". And this message will also be displayed for other elements. but boundary values are correct. Second time I tried to load data directly from Tecplot Data loader. it loads completely internal and boundary data but the data on boundaries is not correct. I set the wall temperature fixed to 350 but Tecplot shows something between 318 and 330 for the wall zone. I had this problems on other cases. So in the first way the internal data does not loads correctly and the second way boundary data. I tried to combine these two but the resaults showed that was not a good idea ![]() please help me what is the problem and how can I fix that. Personally I prefer to use foamToTecplot360. the file size was about 3 Mb and I can't attach it. thanks for your attention. |

Instead of using foamToTecplot directly load the OpenFoam case file by loading controlDict in Tecplot 360. It gives the same effect as foamToTecplot. Trust me I've spent many a days figuring it out.

Hi Anirudh, thanks for your reply. I changed to a very coarse mesh and now able to upload date. Please take a look at my case. Open the data by loading controlDict inside the Tecplot as you said. Turn off the Inlet, Outlet and Step1 zone and then take a look at temperature contour on wall zone. You will see a Temperature distribution in range [302,310], while the wall Temperature is fixed to 350 in T file. And if you turn on the all zones, you will see a Temperature distribution between [0,350], while the lowest Temperature is set to 300 in Internal and Inlet boundary. So I decided to use foamToTecplot because it exports boundary data separately, but Tecplot is unable to load faceZoneMesh file. Please help me to export my data to Tecplot. |
