Utilities for handling block-structured grid with conformal interfaces.
Read and write some widely-used mesh files.
Currently supported formats:
- PLOT3D: *.fmt or *.xyz
- FLUENT: *.msh
It aims to be a self-contained toolkit with operations that are easy to use.
This utility is typically designed for a 3D CFD solver.
Given block connectivity information, it converts multi-block structured grid into unstructured format.
The block connectivity info is written in a Neutral Map File
, where topology structure can be identified.
The cartesian coordinates are stored in a PLOT3D
file, whose format is classical and easy to understand. It should be noted that the "IBLANK
" info within a PLOT3D grid will NOT be used.
In short, it functions as PLOT3D + NMF -> FLUENT.
This utility is typically designed for optimization.
