Dear all, I am trying to make a CFD mesh (unstructured) in Gmsh to be used in openFOAM. I use the `gmshToFoam` utility which works, but the problem is I lose all the boundary patches (physical groups) that I assign in Gmsh. I wish to automate the whole process using cli but as the boundary patches are lost when converting to foam, it is not possible anymore.
I read in another forum that this is due to higher order elements, but no solution was provided. My question is - Is it possible to restrict the formation of elements to 1st order? I get a list of error which probably points to that all the higher order elements are ignored (consequently openFOAM fails to read the boundary and physical group informations): " Unhandled element 1 at line 38931 Unhandled element 1 at line 38932 Unhandled element 1 at line 38933 Unhandled element 1 at line 38934 Unhandled element 1 at line 38935 Unhandled element 1 at line 38936 . . . " If you know any other ways to circumvent this issue, please intimate as well.
