Ingo H. J. Jahn, Kan Qin · 2015
e3prepToFoam.py is a utility to convert structured body-conforming multi-block meshes from the e3prep/Eilmer format to the OpenFOAM foam format. This report is a user-guide for the mesh conversion tool and provides several examples to help with the conversion. The tool can perform the following tasks: • Convert 2-D Eilmer mesh into 1 cell deep 2-D OpenFOAM foam mesh • Convert 2-D axysimmetric EIlmer mesh into 1 layer thick wedge shaped OpenFOAM foam mesh • Convert 3-D Eilmer mesh into 3-D OpenFOAM foam mesh.
