[Nek5000-users] Mesh with two blocks

[nek5000-users at lists.mcs.anl.gov]

Paul,

thank you again for your reply.

When I generated a mesh in Cubit that has two blocks and then run it with Nek5000 I get nelv = nelt. How does Nek5000 know that block 1 is the fluid mesh and block 2 is the solid mesh?

I think I missing a step in the setup of my problem. I wonder how the mesh used in conj_ht was generated?

Thanks,

Marco

Depends on which routine.  Suppose userbc:

      if (ifield.eq.1) then ! fluid field

      else   ! thermal field

      endif

Or... if in userchk:

      integer e

      do e=1,nelt

           if (e.le.nelv) then ! fluid + temperature

           else    !  solid==temperature only

           endif

     enddo

Local elements are sorted:  1...nelv is fluid

1...nelt is thermal

nelv is <= nelt

Thank you for your replies.

I am actually interested in generating a mesh for a conjugate gradient solve. In the conj_ht example, the solid block is differentiated from the liquid block by testing the element index, i.e., ieg > nelgt. Assuming that I generate a mesh with two blocks that represent the fluid and solid regions, respectively, how do I access these blocks in the usr file?

I generated a 2-D mesh with Cubit and was able to convert it to a re2 format with exo2nek but I do not know how to differentiate each block in the usr file to set boundary conditions for instance.
