Re: Installing CfdOF on a Mac

Ok, got paraview recognized. Magic path is /Applications/ParaView-5.11.2.app/Contents/bin/ !!!!! <-- left out the last slash. From your description, I think it should be /Applications/ParaView-5.11.2.app/Contents/MacOS/paraview I have added this as a default path for MacOS, so it should work if you...

Re: Installing CfdOF on a Mac

Declared victory too soon. :( Even with using the best known path /Applications/ParaView-5.11.2.app/Contents/bin/pvpython CfdOF is complaining. No, the paraview path should not be set to pvpython. It should (on Linux, anyway) be set to the 'paraview' executable, and it then also expects to find a '...

Re: Installing CfdOF on a Mac

It's hard to know what the setup is looking for. For gmsh it needed the path and executable. For paraview I only provided the path, since it wasn't obvious what the executable name was. Is it pvbatch, pvdataserver, pvpython, pvrenderserver, pvserver, or? It's the full path to the executable, which ...

Re: Installing CfdOF on a Mac

Before I forget, during the CfdOF installation after I gave the correct path to paraview, one of the messages was 15:54:50 Checking for paraview: 15:54:50 Paraview executable: /Applications/ParaView-5.11.2.app 15:54:50 Python support in paraview not found. Please install paraview python packages. H...

Re: Installing CfdOF on a Mac

Does this need to be replaced with the one mentioned by the instructions? If so, how can one do this? I did download the customized version, but am unclear if I need it, or how to install it. Yes. You would need to build the downloaded one by running its Allwmake script after sourcing OpenFOAM. If ...

Re: Installing CfdOF on a Mac

From the CfdOF readme: macOS Not widely tested, but success has been reported. See the following forum post for instructions. That forum post would be your best place to start. MacOS is not officially supported as I don't have a Mac... To build, which do I build first? HISA or Cfmesh? What is the pa...

Re: Edge Refinement in CfdOF cfMesh

Hello: Are the edge refinement options functional for cfMesh inside CfdOF? I edited the Edge Refinement and Region Edge Refinement values with no difference in the resulting mesh. Also, I don't see a "feature angle" input that would partner with the edge refinements. Unfortunately this is...

Re: Cant change temp folder location to another drive

Recently I tried to change the temp directory from the C drive to one of the other hard drives in my PC. The boot drive (C) is only a sata SSD and is nearly full and I have 3 empty NVME drives (unfortunately I cant use these to boot from for now). However, when I change the temp folder directory to...
