two external softwares to CAESES

[Mr. jason jacob 0]

Hi,

I'd like to know how to connect two external softwares to CAESES.
In particular, I'm trying to connect CAESES to harpoon(meshing tool)
and OpenFOAM(simulation tool) together.

Harpoon imports the trimesh CAESES created and exports the mesh files
in OpenFOAM format and OpenFOAM runs with these mesh files and other
input files.

I have succeeded in connecting CAESES to harpoon and OpenFOAM, respectively,
but I have failed in connecting these softwares to CAESES together. In this case,
I think I have to set up connection between harpoon and OpenFOAM, but I don't
know how to do that.

Could you tell me how to set up my case?


P.S. I'm trying the setting like the following:

• computation

Local Application: harpoon
Input Geometry: trimesh (Format: OpenFOAM STL)
Input Files: config file(necessary when harpoon is executed in batch mode)

• computation01

Local Application: simpleFoam
Input Files:
system/controlDict, system/fvSchemes, system/fvSolution,
constant/RASProperties, constant/transportProperties,
0/U, 0/p

Thanks in advance for your help.

HI Jason,

 

You can select the result-file from one software connector as the input file of the other, see images.
