Thanks for the video. It was very useful for me. However, when I do paraFoam, I get the following error and the window gets closed. Do you know the reason why? Thanks.
--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:
Cannot find patchField entry for Face1

You can solve this problem by referring to the next clip (part 3)!

Hello Ali! Thank you so much for your tutorials! I'm trying to this. I'm having problem when try to convert de UNV file to OpenFoam mesh. The problem occur when ideasUnvToFoam start to read the FarField_extruded. I'm getting the following message:
"For group 6 named FarField_extruded trying to read 0 patch face indices.
--> FOAM Warning :
From void readSets(Foam::IFstream&, Foam::DynamicList&, Foam::DynamicList&)
in file ideasUnvToFoam.C at line 548
Reading "airfoil.unv" at line 202174
When reading patches expect entity type code 8
Skipping group code -1"
Please, do you have an idea where I can have more details about this message?
Thank you so much!

Hello Ali! I got the solution for the problem I was having! In fact there were no problem! The ideasUnvToFoam included in the version of OpenFOAM I'm using, do not permit convert the unv files if the patches are not created on them! Then I create the patches as you teach on the video and problem was gone!
Thanks a lot for your videos! They are very useful!

Thanks for the feedback

Where we can find the download of "ideasUnvToFoam.exe"?

[@aliikhsanul7982]

No need to download it brother, it's already compiled within the installation process of OpenFOAM.
Simply open the OpenFOAM terminal, then you can type "ideasUnvToFoam", and it will work as it used to be.
