This video is the final step in this tutorial on solver-independent grid adaptation: we started with the grid generated in Pointwise, solved in SU2, post-processed using Tecplot, and now complete the cycle by modifing the grid based on solution-characteristics. A fair bit of ground has been covered, and different snippets of code used: go to this page to review these steps. Create a batch file or shell file to integrate these steps and you’re all set!

The TecIO Library allows you to quickly and easily read and write Tecplot binary files directly from your application. Users have coded up applications 10 times faster using TecIO-MPI, which handles the complexity of MPIIO for you. Watch this webinar for details. Parellel SZL output, of course, is available with SU2 as detailed here.

Pointwise mesh adaptation can do more than the off-body adaptation outlined in the tutorial above. Nick Wyman and Steve Karman from Pointwise along with Paul Galpin from ISimQ held a Let’s Talk Meshing Live Q&A about mesh adaptation to answer questions on this subject. Watch this webinar to learn how mesh adaptation with Pointwise can maintain fidelity to the bounding surfaces of the flow domain.
