Import mesh from auto meshing program about gdtk HOT 2 CLOSED

Hi Hilbert,

Pointwise should be able to convert OpenFoam files to SU2 for you, but I don't know how easy this will be to automate. There is a scripting interface you can try, but I don't know if it can be called from command line. You might be stuck trying to use someone's dodgy python script, since there doesn't seem to be an official foam -> SU2 program.

I think we have a user who has done completely automated mesh generation in Gmsh before. Is that something you might be interested in?

Hi Nick,

I will have a look at using Pointwise for the conversion, I have never tried that, thanks for the suggestion.
I love Gmsh for 2D and 2D rotational/extruded problems. The issue is that I have never been able to generate a nice mesh from an stl with appropriate boundary layer elements. If you know of any Gmsh scripts that generate a good quality 3D mesh over any stl (say waverider) with nice boundary layer elements I would definitely be interested.
