GridgenGridgen is a grid generation software that can be used to generate structured and unstructured grids. The package has the ability to generate grids in a variety of formats. This makes it useful if one is interested in generating grids that need to be used by Fluent and GASP (one does not have to go thru the process of generating a grid file for fluent and redoing the same thing for GASP (or for that matter any other solver)). The current version of Gridgen is 15.06 on the IA-32 (Tungsten) cluster.To use Gridgen on the IA32 Linux cluster, Tungsten, add the following lines to the end of the .cshrc file in your home directory:
# Gridgen settings
setenv CFD_HOME "/usr/apps/cfd"
setenv GRIDGEN_HOME ${CFD_HOME}/GridgenV15
setenv PATH ${GRIDGEN_HOME}:${PATH}
To start Gridgen from the command line, type gridgen at the unix prompt after you login to Tungsten
Gridgen is a product of Pointwise, Inc.. |
