1 3 snappyHexMesh

Renumber mesh using renumberMesh utility:

1 3 renumberMesh -latestTime

When finished, check the mesh running checkMesh and view the mesh in paraview:

1 3 checkMesh
1 3 paraFoam

Figure: Solid mesh view

The final mesh is located in the directory called by a number. Copy the mesh to the constant/polyMesh directory and remove unnecessary directories:

1 3 cp -rf 2/polyMesh/* constant/polyMesh/
1 3 rm -rf 1 2 3 processor*
