[OpenFOAM] After setting MeshScalingFactor in Gmsh

zhoubinwx · October 19, 2008, 11:14

Dear all,

I want to set the dimension in Gmsh instead of using "transformPoints -scale '(1E-6 1E-6 1E-6)'" after gmshTofoam, I use "Mesh.ScalingFactor = 1e-06;"

I could see that the nodes data are fine, but I could not see the geometry in paraFoam.

When I disable this "Mesh.ScalingFactor = 1e-06;", I could see the geometry quite well.

Therefore, I would like to post a simple case here. This attached you could see the geometry, then when you disable the comment "Mesh.ScalingFactor = 1e-06;" in .geo file, you will have the problem.

box.

If you know it, please let me know, thank you.

Best regards,

Bin
