README for IWESOL - IWES Open Library
Copyright Fraunhofer IWES, Oldenburg, Germany
Date: 12 Feb 2013, author: Jonas Schmidt
---------------------------------------------------
IWESOL contains libraries and tools for C++ and OpenFOAM.
In the version available here it contains:
1) The application 'terrainBlockMesher'
This tool for OpenFOAM generates structured meshes
over complex terrain. The latter has to be provided
in form of a STL data file. It features
- the basic mesh generation (ie, the generation
of an extensive blockMeshDict file),
- the creation of an outer box around the STL,
- the creation of a cylinder around the STL, with
an arbitrary number of sector patches,
- the possibility to add symmetric and oval hills
to the orography,
- the option to make the mesh cyclic,
- the addition of grading stripes in (x,y) directions.
The workflow is as follows:
- First set up the dictionary file in your case folder
'system/terrainBlockMesherDict'. For doing so, copy
and paste and modify from the tutorials, located at
'iwesol/iwesolFoamTools/tutorials/terrainBlockMesher'.
- run 'terrainBlockMesher'. This writes the file
'constant/polyMesh/blockMeshDict'.
- run 'blockMesh'.
For installation instructions, consult the file
'iwesol/README_INSTALL'.
Thank you for using IWESOL. Please consider this a beta version and
