Notes for fluentMeshToFoam with zone preservation
#################################################
1. New option added:
- writeSets:
Writes all Fluent boundaries faceSets preserving Fluent names
Writes all Fluent regions to cellSets preserving Fluent names
lines: 1375 - 1393 & 1673 - 1741
sets are useful for post-processing using foamToVTK with the "-faceSet
<name>" and "-cellSet <name>" options.
- writeZones:
Writes all regions to cellZones preserving Fluent names
Writes all region internal face to faceZones preserving Fluent names
lines: 1545 - 1667
Zones are usefull for porous media and MRF calculations
2. Zone Access
- Zones are simple lists of label lists that can be accessed from polyMesh
with the cellZones(), faceZones() and pointZones() member functions
- Example (Members from polyMesh.H and ZoneMesh.H):
label thisCellZoneID = mesh.cellZones().findZoneID("thisZoneName");
const labelList& thisCellZone = mesh.cellZones()[thisCellZoneID];
- Zone integrity is preserved during mesh modification and decompomposition.
- Once created via addZones, zones allow modification through non-const
access
3. Fluent boundary types.
- All internal and baffle elements are ignored during conversion
- Boundary faces labelled as internal (i.e. interior, interface, internal,
solid, fan, radiator, porous-jump) but that are in fact external boundaries
will be added to a default wall boundary.
