Mesh generation in CFD: All you need to know in one article

Do you know the difference between the average CFD user and a world-class CFD practitioner? In most cases, it is the ability to generate a grid for complex geometries, which remains a challenge to this day with the tools we have available. Our desire to simulate ever more complex cases has grown faster than the …

How To Test A CGNS-based Mesh Reading Library Using gtest

In this article, we extend our knowledge on how to integrate gtest into our mesh reading library using the CGNS data format for structured and unstructured grids that we developed in a previous series. We will rewrite the unit tests that we have already written using our own primitive testing framework and highlight how gtest …

How to read a multi-block unstructured mesh from a CGNS file

In this article, we continue developing our CGNS mesh reader library and implement the unstructured mesh reading class to complement our structured mesh reading class developed in the previous article. There are a few similarities between reading a structured and unstructured grid, and where that is the case, I will go through the code a …
