The simulation I would like to run is more complex than what I am working with now, so I wanted to make sure the mesh conversion would work first. I have been struggling to convert an ICEM mesh to a nek mesh while maintaining boundary conditions and curvature. I ran a quick test where I ran reatore2 with a complete rea file then converted this re2 file back to a rea file for comparison When I do this, all of the boundary conditions are maintained.

The fluid boundary conditions from the re2 file seem to be created appropriately with the side set numbers in the fifth column. So it looks like my mesh that I input into exo2nek is causing the problem or something in exo2nek that is causing my problem. Any suggestions would be appreciated. </div><div><br></div><div>Thanks again,</div><div><br></div><div>Tommy</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Aug 17, 2017 at 2:43 PM, <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:nek5000-users@lists.mcs.anl.gov" target="_blank">nek5000-users@lists.mcs.anl.gov</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Why do you run re2rea in the first place?
