How to test parallel version of Saturne

[Debashis Basu]

hello,
I installed the parallel version of Saturne 1.3.3 with openMPI.
Any script or suggestion on how to test it ?
Also, any suggestion or help on how to import a cgns grid file generated by FLUENT to Saturne ?
Thanks and Regards,
Debashis

Hello,
 
to test your version you can use the case 4 of  the tutorial.
 
And normally, Code_Saturne accept the cgns format, but if it doesn't work you can use the envelopp of Code_Saturne
to change your cgns file into a med file.
 
ecs -m yourfile.cgns -med -volume
 
You can have more informations on "ecs" with the command : ecs -h
 
 
Regards.

Thanks a lot.
If I generate a grid in FLUENT and try to save it in CGNS format, then how can I import it to Saturne ? Which step ? While reading the grid ?
The tutorials have the grids in .DES format.

Hello,
The tutorials have the grids in .des format, but the Preprocessor accepts multiple formats, as "advertised" in the documentation.
Just select your CGNS file instead of a .des file using the GUI, and the available additional options will appear.
