i tried adding liftDrag utility box as mentioned in the download link but i m getting the following error.

as i m new to linux can u type me the xact commands

Hi Mayank,

I do not know yet if liftDrag compiles in OF 1.5 w/o changing some dependencies...

If u r ok in c++ should be no problem, anyway, always used it in OF-1.4.1.

About blockMesh and blockMeshDict, i never really used it... i always build my meshes with external meshers, and export them with the mesh converting utilities...

But i take it the syntax guides in OF- Userguide show how to build a blockMeshDict file... don't them ? ...

Really dunno here... never had yr problem, because never used, ( or plan to use ...) blockMesh, i always work with "kimky" 3D stuff...

Regards

Alex

[alexandrepereira]

Hi Again...

Do u realy need liftDrag in OF-1.5...?

U can use this

http://www.cfd-online.com/cgi-bin/Op...cus/discus.cgi

I guess liftDrag is obsolete in OF-1.5...

Alex

[mgz1985]

yeah i need it as i have to verify the drag and lift coefficients for an airfoil incompressible flow.

the link u sent above is pointing me to a forum

is there any other way of finding the coefficients.

[mgz1985]

hi

i m decent in C++, so how do i calculate using my knwoledge of C++. Do i have to write a programme and recompile it. I am scared more of Linux.

regarding the blockMeshDict my syntax is correct for sure

besides SALOME what other softwares are available for 3d mesh in linux as openware

[alexandrepereira]

Hi

U do not have to rewrite liftDrag, and i bet it takes a bit more than just plain C++ knowlege to build a post processing CFD tool like liftDrag... :-)

just update your dependency lists, as wmake spotted it... dependencies are incorrect...

As to meshing, you have gmsh, NetGen, TetGen as openware,

For commercial software, you have Harpoon, ICEM-CFD, Gambit, Pointwise, and GridGen.

Alex

hi all,

Please can sum1 run this mesh and tell me why do the edges 1 2 and 7 8 not coincide.

it is because of this, i m getting a failed mesh in skewness.

I have checked my vertices and points in polyLine all of them should co-incide according to my input.

Thanx

[mgz1985]

yeah even after changing the edge to 7 8 in polyLine. i still get the error of skewness.

can sum1 help

[suredross]

hi all,
i tried converting data to Fieldview for my case and came up with this error message:

anybody with an idea what the problem is?by the way the command runs on other cases of mine.

[7islands]

Try renaming "physicalProperties~" in your case directory to a name which contains only alphabets or numbers, or simply removing it.

By the way this is one of the major pitfalls my students fell into while I was teaching OpenFOAM in my course.

Takuya

[suredross]

hi Takuya,
thanks for the help.the problem is i have no such file in my case directory,so i am really confused by that message.do you or anyone have any other ideas??
thanks once again

[7islands]

Ah since foamToFieldView9 is crashing after displaying "time = 0" it's likely in the 0 subdirectory, probably with a whitespace in its filename.

T

[suredross]

well,i have checked the 0 subdirectory and there is no such file in there.i don't know what is amiss really.any more ideas?thanks

[suredross]

here is the 0 subdirectory,i cant seem to find the problem:
/attach{0}

[suredross]

sorry.here we go
0.tar.gz

[7islands]

So...
1. What is the output of "find ." in the case directory?
2. What will happen if you turn off DebugSwitches of word and fileName (open ~/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.4.1/.OpenFOAM-1.4.1/controlDict and modifiy the default debug levels of 2 to 0)?

T

[suredross]

when i run the find command,no such file is seen.with your second suggestion ,i am a bit lost.could you explain further?thank you.

[suredross]

hi Takuya,
i have seen the problem.it was a hidden file in my constant folder-guess i was looking in the wrong place!
thanks for your help.
